So I know this person for about 7 years and we’ve always kinda had a connection. She really understands me and things I’ve been through and I understand her. She lives about an hour away, but was at her parents this weekend and we spent much of last night and today together. Well she packed up and went back to her house , and we’ve started dating recently but man when she got in the car to drive away and hugged me I couldn’t hold it I started balling my eyes out. I never knew how much you can love someone. I miss her so much already. I don’t know what’s wrong with me not my anxiety’s up and I feel really depressed now. How can I get this to subside? Also my mom if you follow my posts is a huge anxiety trigger. She called me a few times when I was with her. And my mom lives with me. As I was on my way home I just couldn’t feel anything besides sadness. I feel like I know what the problem is but maybe I just can’t accept the fact I need to move on my own and let my mom figure it out financially and all. My anxiety has me feeling like my throats closing I hate this shit. I think my girl is my comfort zone and we love eachother but when I go back home I see problemsz I don’t know :/

Hey , I think what your experiencing isn’t anxiety or a health concern. It’s just LOVE ! If you really care and feel strongly for someone and they make you feel complete your of course going to feel this way.

I freak out too easily. Lol . It just kinda depresses me when I’m not with them. I mean right now we see each other like once a week she lives like maybe 45 minutes away and I work a lot. Kinda hoping to move closer or something. I guess I really am in love. So this is what it feels like

I get this all the time with my boyfriend. I’m usually not like this at all but when I’m anxious, i hate being away from him cuz he makes everything so good :(

You won’t. Tell you what.. do something fun for yourself. Even if you feel sad and anxious. Your partner loves you and will be so excited to hear about your stories.

I have that exact same vibe with my bf. We stay a half an hour to an hour away from each other and we spend weekends and sometimes weekdays, when we can , together. It’s been 4 years and counting . But when we go back to our places, we get emotional. It’s not really anxiety more so love like Nobster said. At first , my anxiety did act up because he’s also my comfort zone , alongside my family. I can be on my own , but now with being in a relationship, I love being around him. You’re definitely not alone. We’re both planning to move in together, saving up now really.

That sucks , I hope you’ll be able to change your living situation soon. My mom isn’t really so much a trigger , I’ve tried to distance myself and this point, sometimes things are great , sometimes it isn’t . But I feel like that would be with any relationship:/ there’s the good and the ugly . It’s all about how we handle what ever conflict we have . I hope that you can resolve it soon, because to be in an environment where you can be super chill and the person you’re with , gets you , and doesn’t really trigger your anxiety at all? It feels like an oasis. I know. So, idk I say hustle , save , grind out here ...several streams of income and move out to your own spot and eventually let your girl stay with you 💚 you can do it !
