•Reassure them constantly. (This may be annoying but they will be thankful.)

•Keep them in the loop of your life. (This means share plans with them. It will keep them at ease.)

•Text them when you are on our way, or when you get home. (This may seem obnoxious but their brain will thank you.)

•Hugs. (After anxious days something as little as a hug can make things better.)

•Triggers. Identify them. (This one will be hard. Once you figure out what makes them anxious it will help you to make them feel safe.)

•No surprises unless you know it will make them happy. (Surprises can be hard to handle for anxious people. It will depend on their anxiety level.)

•Change is hard. (Try to limit major changes in your relationship if possible. Things will change but be ready to help your partner through it.)

•Be there. Just be there. (As complex as an anxiety disorder can get the best thing you can do is be there and let them know you care.)

This goes for friendships. Relationships. Family members. If someone close to you is anxious, these things will save them a lot of worry.
