In Part 3 of the How Good It Can Get five-part series, Anxiety's Ripple Effect, host Andrea Rice and co-founder Chan Maragh take an honest look at how anxiety can quietly create resentment in relationships.
When one partner is struggling with anxiety, the other often ends up taking on extra responsibilities, whether it's managing finances, making phone calls, or handling social obligations. Over time, this imbalance can lead to frustration, resentment, and even distance between partners.
Andrea and Chan discuss why resentment is one of the most damaging emotions in a romantic relationship, how communication plays a crucial role in preventing it, and why setting healthy boundaries is essential for both partners to thrive.
This episode offers a compassionate and practical perspective for anyone navigating the hidden strain anxiety places on relationships.
