He himself has anxiety so you would be more comfortable with talking to him then a therapist or something

(Some people are more comfortable with talking to someone that is going through the same thing rather then people that have their life together)

He isn't a psychologist so he won't be 100% helpful and recognise all the signs but he will advice you see a professional to help you.

He knows that you are not your mental health and doesn't treat you like some mentally unstable person.

If you don't want to go out because one day your anxiety is worse then he's fine with it.

If one of your ways of coping with anxiety is drawing he will carry a pen and a tiny notebook in his pocket every time you both go out.

If you start panicking he'll make sure your full attention is on him and it helps you calm down.

If you overly worry about things, even if they are little, Garcello will assure you that everything is fine.

When he's reassuring you he'll hold your hand (he'll ask if your okay with him touching your hand first) and rub your knuckles.

He gives you one of his cats that he once had back when he was homeless.

(Petting a animals helps reduce anxiety and also a cat purring against you can lower down your heart rate and help you calm down. Also animals can recognise human emotions and know when your stressed)

If your anxiety is so bad it makes you go into 'immobal' he'll help take care of you by bathing you for you or feeding you while also help give you motivation to do it yourself in a way that you slowly get back into doing those things by yourself and giving you motivation.

(Immobal is when your anxiety is bad that your brain just gives up and you loose motivation to do anything. It's why people with severe anxiety and other mental health find it hard to have a shower or get out of bed)

If you want to just have a mental health day he'll call into work for you so you have a day off. If you want him to stay he'll pamper you with affection but if you just want some space and some time for yourself he's fine with that too.

Every morning (unless if it's raining) he'll get you to join him going outside on the balcony because fresh air can help.

He does research on how to help with anxiety for you.

He buys lavender (either the plant or the candles, if depends if your comfortable with the candle) because the sent of those naturally help calm people down.

When your at a social gathering he'll hold onto your hand and lean against you and help anyway he can.
