What's the best way to break up with anyone, really? As the song says, breaking up is hard to do. Whatever the reason for deciding to end the relationship, there is no "right way" of going about it. This question struck me because I went through a period of about 6 months where I was having panic attacks daily. I wasn't able to work for several months and I relied heavily on my boyfriend of 3 years to be my only means of support. I called him at work daily, sometimes several times a day, because I was having another panic attack. Needless to say, this put a tremendous strain on our relationship and we struggled. Luckily for me, he stuck by my side throughout the entire ordeal and we got through it. We ended the relationship a few years later but I will never forget how he stuck by my side when I most needed him and how he helped me get through a really low period in my life. This isn't to say that you are a "jerk" for breaking up with someone during a low point in their life. If my boyfriend had broken up with me during the period where I was having intense panic attacks it would be been difficult but I would have been ok. I think you need to be kind and honest with the person (or as honest as the situation warrants without being a jerk) and let the go the same way you would with someone that didn't have panic attacks. Good luck!
