Alone

[Xstriker25X]

My girlfriend got deployed today to oklahoma for a year & half for the army. we spent everyday moment together & when we weren’t together we were talking on the phone. now she’s over 10 hours away & doesn’t have cellphone privileges. i cant function. i cant breathe. i cant think without her. im so alone. im not used to being alone. i can keep myself busy during the day but when it gets late & everyone goes to sleep im trapped with

my loneliness. i dont know what to do. im lost & i don’t know if i can make it like this. it feels impossible.

Would writing her a letter at night help? You could send it to her. Their is a real old school romance to letter writing that is lost in today’s tech world.

she never told me her address to send the letters to. but if i found out i really think that would help

[Hidden in reply to Xstriker25X]

Even if you can’t send them. Write them anyway. You can give them to her when you see her again.

Hi I’m sorry to hear you feel this way. Do you have something to distract your self? Friends? A hobby? Maybe learning a new skill?

all of my friends have boyfriends that they are always with. i do sports & i go do stuff during the day & that keeps me busy. but at night when everyone falls asleep i’m up thinking & i have nothing to distract myself with. i have insomnia so i can sleep to forget either.

Hmmm, I’m not sure what military policy is but if you have insomnia it CAN affect your mental health- particularly anxiety. Perhaps you could see a doctor about your insomnia- that could be what really has you worked up. A mind that’s not kept busy thinks TOO much. I hope that that helps
