RS,
I am sorry to hear that you are feeling this way!:(
Yes, it sound like the anticipation of being separated is causing you anxiety symptoms.
Can you pinpoint your fears? Is it being/staying alone? Are you worried about his safety while travelling?
What then can you do to relieve those fears? If it is about being alone...can you set up some social dates with friends/family? Maybe you could arrange to stay, or have someone stay at their/your house? If nothing else, can you plan activities that will keep you busy and distracted?
Will you be able to call/skype your husband everyday? If the issue is worry about him while he is away...then letting him know that you need a scheduled check in and time to talk everyday could help to get you through this rough time.
Know that you can always post with us here everyday too if need be. We care and understand.
It is going to be alright. My husband travels as well for work. I have gotten used to it now, and even kind of enjoy having the bed to stretch out in all to myself.;p
We will be here!
S.C.
