Answer 1

You can't push someone who is having anxiety attacks into doing something or feeling a certain way. It takes time for them to learn to be trusting and they do need space to be able to come to terms with things. Panic attacks are real and very frustrating and can definitely change a person. I think you should be there but don't push too hard....just take it slow and be as understanding and supportive as possible. If they continue to get worse, he may need to speak to a Dr to get help.
