Hello all, I am coming to this sub so that maybe I can get some help in trying to understand why I can do for my wife’s anxiety. She has always had it but has kept it under control with medication. As of lately, she has been promoted and now works from home doing collections for her company. She is a very sensitive person as it is, and now she has to deal with people owing her company money on a daily basis. 

She breaks down crying just about everyday, and the glow she once had is slowly starting to fade. It hurts me so much to see and to watch. I’m trying everything I can but it too is starting to affect me. 

She sees a psychiatrist and a therapist and Has recently been prescribed klonopin. I work a lot but when I am home I try my best to get her out of her head and do things. We go for walks, try meditation, grounding, positive reinforcement, etc.

I know that quitting her job would help, but the fact that she does not drive and does not have a college degree, this makes her scared to think of what else she would be able to find. (She makes very good money doing what she does)
 I personally have dealt with depression my whole life and have recent found that psilocybin (magic mushrooms) to be a God send.  I have read countless studies on how microdosing can do wonders for anxiety and would like for her to try this, however, she is 6 years clean and sober and is scared to try it for a couple reasons. 1. There is a negative stigma around psychedelics and 2. Her mother and sister do not like the idea at all, even though they are on board with her trying cannabis.

I really hope this doesn’t get lost in this thread because anything will help.
