Boyfriend is at military camp and I'm an anxious mess
My boyfriend left for military camp yesterday and I've been feeling my anxiety rising ever since. We've been together for almost 4 years now and he comforts me in a way that my friends just don't, especially when I'm feeling really anxious (I have a pretty bad anxiety disorder). I can count on him to make me laugh or distract me. But now he's 8 hours away at military camp for 2 weeks and I'll have no contact with him at all. I think I'm getting anxious about my anxiety, or about needing him but 100% not being able to have him. I know that sounds nuts but sometimes just a hug from him is enough to make me feel better but tough shit in this situation. He normally just makes everything feel okay again. We normally have a routine of facetiming every night so no matter how shit my day is I can tell myself that he'll be there for me that night, but obviously that's not possible here. I know that not having him around is a reality that I'll need to get used to and that I need to be able to find comfort in myself, but it's hard. I've been a bit nauseous and weepy because of how upset I'm getting. I'm even tearing up writing this and have been tearing up at the smallest things that remind me of him. I would talk to my friends about this but I don't wanna bother them too much or have them think I'm being over emotional. Any tips? :/
