Has anyone ever had a spouse or significant other leave for an extended period of time? My husband is a merchant mariner and is out at sea for 6 months starting today. We used to work out at sea together but I found a job I love so I’m staying. He is choosing to go back. I agreed because the money was great and this line of work makes him happy. But this separation is hitting me hard and my anxiety is making it difficult to cope. I miss his presence so much and wonder how anyone does this on a regular basis. Any tips or tools you have would be appreciated.

I am in a distance relationship and I’m actually okay with it. I’m able to focus on my work and daily tasks, while checking in throughout the day over text. Then in the evening we always videocall and watch videos together.
