Medication is what helps me the most with that underlying baseline anxiety and then I also lean on my husband and therapist. I wish there were an easy answer but my gut keeps going back to you considering sharing with your partner. He can always tell you its too much for him or he needs a break but I think its worthwhile giving him a chance.
Thanks sarahsweets.

I do actually talk to him about it, but after some time of listening and supporting, he then says "Ok, let's put it aside, enjoy our eve and not think about work anymore". So he has a limit, which I respect and appreciate. I could go on all night about it if he let me. lol.
