My bestfriends boyfriend has an anxiety disorder, and they're always fighting because he wants to be in control, but he never makes sense and he's not very reasonable.
What is it exactly? How does it make you act?
he sounds more like a dick than someone with anxiety disorder. i have an anxiety disorder and i was always very suspicious of people doing things for me (making food, things like that), even those i trusted (like my mom), i would have panic attacks for no reason, and certain triggers would cause me to have panic attacks as well. i was very afraid of speaking out because i was afraid of retaliation. i didn't trust myself to danxiety disordero a lot of things because i was afraid of having a panic attack and messing up or getting killed from it (driving for example, i never would have drove). i'm sure some people act very differently from me, but i'm sorry, he just sounds like an asshole.
it just really bugs me when people use a disorder as an excuse to act a certain way, especially when i have the same disorder and i still manage to act like a decent human being.
Here's a link to some good information about anxiety disorders:

It is important to recognise if he is really having a medical condition or if he is just feeling insecure. A medical condition is when he starts to hyperventilate, his heart races, his hands sweat and he is unable to function because of extreme fear.
If he is really having a medical condition, then he needs to seek treatment. To know whether he has a medical condition or not, he needs to go through tests by doctors.
Here is an article that talks about anxiety symptoms
