Can you clean? Find some fun blogs to read? Read a book? Watch a movie? Take a nap?

I am the same way, I get so panicked being alone!

I know exactly how you feel! I am a stay at home mom and my fiancé has 2 jobs. He is gone Monday - Friday 9-3 and then about 3 or 4 days a week he will work evenings or weekends at his second job. Being alone is very hard for me! Especially having to take care of my daughter while I'm anxious. It usually helps me to sit in front of the air conditioning, drink something cold, try to read something or listen to music. If all else fails, I call my grandma or my mom. Having a conversation can be a great distraction. There have been many times where I've felt anxiety creeping up on me and I call someone to talk and forget all about it.

I was also having back/chest pains yesterday night while my fiancé was at work. Once I was able to stop thinking about it, I didn't notice them anymore. I know it's sometimes hard to convince yourself that it's just anxiety but it is :)

I also pick an old tv series and watch it like crazy. 7th Heaven is it now. It totally occupies my mind. I just watch it on my phone or ipad.

My partner hardly ever leaves me as he knows I struggle an I'm lucky because he works from home a lot of the time. Today was the first time I've been left on my own longer then an hour for about 7 months and this is no joke usually if my partner goes away for work I get a friend around or stay with a family member that's how bad I struggle being on my own. I do feel proud of myself but now I'm exhausted. My anxiety has got worse at night time though it keeps doing this few months it will be the day time then few months it will be night time. So tonight I now feel awful.

Maybe looking froward to him returning would help.

[sharacel91]

He was only gone 4 hours but even when he did return although I felt safer I felt like he wasn't proud of what I had done I wanted him to say he was proud of me I don't think he realises how hard it was for me.

It is hard for them to grasp, and we can't wish it on them to see for themselves
