ok this cold be a long story but im going to try to make it short.
before my boyfriend left for basic training in july i would get really nervous around him. idk why. and i was also VERY sick. i think alot of being sick was b/c i was so stressed out about him leaving. (i went to the doc and he said i had acid reflux too) i guess i was scared of what was going to happen with our relationship. with that said....my b/f comes home in 13 days. yes i am happy but also VERY nervous about it. i guess b/c i dont want to go through all that again. being sick and nervous all the time, especially around him is not fun at all. idk to me this is really a stupid thing to worry about but i cant help it. im posting this here b/c i think i do have some kind of anxiety (im starting to think its social anxiety. idk tho). it just seems so unreal that he is about to come home. so im trying to prepare myself so i wont be so nervous when i see him. but with me waking up every morning and saying 15, 14, 13 more days gets me nervous and then im depressed about being nervous all day. sometimes i think im going crazy b/c i shouldnt be like this. and alot of times i feel stupid. my b/f knows about my problem and he is very supportive. i've just had a rough year i guess sith him going away then being gone and now comming home. but any help or advice is appreciated.
i need it. i cant be depressed about this anymore. i want my old life back and i want to be happy again.

I am not saying that your boyfriend is the cause of your stress. But I am wondering if you perhaps will benefit from a therapist and behavioral techniques that encourage relaxation?
