Hi, My name is nikki, im eighteen, and i found myself in a military relationship. he is very special to me, and im just getting into thrown into how hard this stuff is to deal with. hes had weekends where hes been gone and days, and 2 weeks at one point. I knew he was going away for a month in august for a course, but today he just told me hes going away till the end of july for a task, and to be honest, im already on medication for anxiety, and i feel like, im going crazy. i tried asking help from my friends, but they just tell me toughen up because none of them have gone through this, or the feeling of being alone when your man is away. most of them simply do not understand. i know most women in these types of relationships have dealt with their boyfriends leaving for a year or longer, but i just have not ever been exposed to this kind of thing, and i have no experience in it. i dont know if im asking for advice or anything, im just asking for some kind of help and support from you guys, because i feel like im going crazy. i guess, i just need some people who understand, and will help me, or at least let me know i can come to them when im feeling down from this etc.

Nikki,
I think it is hard to understand unless you have been there before. Do you have a counselor to talk to or does your family MD prescribe the medication? I think that having someone that understands what you are going through is helpful, but you will find your own things that may help. Do you have any hobbies or things that you may add that are positive and that take up time? I don't know if you like journaling but maybe writing about how you feel or exercize may help. What is the most difficult for you to deal with like not being able to see him or hear his voice? I have voicemail's I saved from my boyfriend telling me he loves me so I can hear it whenever I want. I am a bit of a romantic LOL if you couldn't tell.

My family doctor prescribed me on medication. I think the most difficult thing is not having that sense of communication, you know? but the most difficult thing has got to be not being able to hear his voice. i will miss not being able to hear the emotion in his voice when he says he loves me for the month and some odd weeks he is gone. What kind of hobbies do you have? I do have some, and my one friend who was in a military relationship and unfortunately lost her boyfriend in the war, suggested i watch whole seasons of tv shows to get it off my mind, to which i tried, but it just, my anxiety seems to always be in the back of my mind, you know? i really appreciate you replying, so thank you very much.
