the title says it all, she's been completely out of sorts in the last few days having taken 3 panic attacks completely randomly and tried to assure me that she was just feeling weirdly anxious (which I knew was bullshit but you can't draw blood out a stone). she's just unloaded this onto me tonight.
She has borderline no relationship with her Dad due to him being abusive in her childhood and her Mum died 7 years ago due to alcohol addiction. Her 2 sisters live locally and now know as I called them over to my place as soon as I could. They are both at my place now and I'm out getting things for her for the next couple of days.
she has obviously growen up extremely rough and is damaged but in the last two to three years has completely changed her life and cut off everyone including family and friends who were a bad influence.
We have only been together about a month and a half and genuinely are still getting to know each other even though things are going amazingly well between us, so I feel totally lost in what to say or do I want to be her support but I have never dealt with this kind of thing before at all.
please help me. I know there'll be rape survivors and SA victims in this community please tell me what helped you at the time and over time?
