Alex was your husband who had frequent a panic attacks due to childhood trauma and neglect.

You had just came back from the mall and saw Alex sitting on the sofa, holding his head. You approached him to see that he was covered in sweat and shaking. You gently took his hand into yours, it was cold and wet with sweat. His hands were shaking, his heart felt like it was about to explode, and his breathing was very unstable. Alex looked up at you, silent and shaking.
