Separation anxiety

I’m really struggling at the moment with a lot of separation anxiety and depression as I’m very emotionally attached to my girlfriend and we are currently long distance. I don’t have anyone to turn to for help or advice and I’m really bad at communicating how I feel but I fear that I’ll take it out on her for not giving me enough attention when she’s doing the most she can already and she’s really amazing. My happiness is 100% reliant on her and when she’s with me or on the phone or replying to my texts and I know that’s not healthy at all but I just don’t know what to do about it.

Please be careful of 'Co-dependency'... you're on the right track by already being aware that it's not healthy.

Hello . Long distance relationships are very difficulty . And your right for understanding that being that depend on someone is not good . Well done for wanting to do something about it . That in it's self is the first step .This is a great time to find out about yourself , find out what you enjoy . Work on self improvements . Find a new hobby , learn a new skill. Do you have any goals or something to aim for ?.

Here is a video that may help with this . I know your only 19 but it's close enough lol
