If your partner is still connected to his horrible ex in a way neither of you can do anything about, here are six ways to cope.

The "comfort relationship": Sometimes we get comfortable being uncomfortable.

We anxiety sufferers are good at covering up how we’re really feeling. You are not alone.

Is it hard for you to accept help when you need it?

The thing is, when you fight with your partner, it’s your amygdala that takes over. It's the part of the brain that processes fear, and it’s powerful.

My anxiety doesn’t mean I can’t be a good parent. In fact, it makes me a better one.

The elephant in the room is my mental illness. Do my anxiety and depression make me unworthy of love?

Real self-care: Forget pedicures and bubble baths.

My whole life, people have been telling me I’m “too much." It's BS.

Can’t calm down, won’t calm down.
