Hello there!
This is my first post to this forum, so bear with me. So here's my situation. So I am happily in a relationship with my boyfriend who lives 5 hours away. He is absolutely a light in my life. Out of all my relationships I have ever had, this one feels absolutely right. When we are together it's as if everything seems right in the world. So, I go to college in my hometown while he's in Oklahoma. (Just a little background information)
So here's my predicament. He went back to school two weeks ago, the first few days I was a wreck. I cried all the time, was quiet, didn't want to be around others, etc. But after that initial few days passed, I have begun to feel a bit apathetic. My rational brain tells me that I miss him, but it is not on my mind 24/7. I am pretty content in my life at school and have been busy ever since he left. However, I feel as if I should be missing him more than I do. Although, occasionally out of nowhere I will become a sobbing wreck for a few minutes.
Another problem I deal with is mild anxiety. I am currently on an antidepressant and sometimes I feel as if my emotions are a bit blunt. My anxiety has also geared up about our relationship. It is almost as if when my life gets more stressful, then more I get anxious about my relationship. It's as if I'm projecting my anxiety onto my wonderful boyfriend.
So I guess my question is this, from an outsider's perspective, do my thoughts and anxiety seem to be from external factors outside my relationship or is something amiss?
Thanks!
