Would you date someone with an anxiety disorder?

This shouldn't be blown off or taken lightly, just because your lonely and the other person interests you. This is a big issue and will effect the relationship for its remainder. Yes I would date someone with anxiety problems but after I had a full understanding of their needs and felt I could support them when I was needed. even if you like/love someone If you cant Handel the relationship and the issues that follow. You may just end up doing more damage and hurting that girl/boy you liked.

Anxiety and Depression are probably some of the most common "disorders" in the psychology world. The answer to this question would depend on the severity of the anxiety and if you could help them, and vise versa. Some anxieties can be as simple as you have to vacuum your house every day at 3pm, or as sever as germophobia.

I guess it would depend on how severe it was. If it kept them from having any kind of enjoyment of life then I wouldn't be 100%, but I don't think it would be too big of a deal.

I agree with Chicgeek^. I mean, it's not a deal breaker, but there's a point where it gets to be too much, and if it's that bad then a relationship may not be the thing you need, but I'm getting a little off topic.

I've dated a few people with anxiety disorder, it was in the extreme though, for both of them, with a mix of PTSD and severe emotional issues. I would have to agree with chic though, it definitely depends how severe it is, but it's not always a deal breaker.
