My girlfriend has told me that she will be staying overseas for a year and a half . This means not seeing her at all during that time . Nor do I have the money to call her all too often . Can send her letters I guess , and I do like doing that . But still , no being physically with her at all . I have barely been able to go longer than a week without losing it / freaking out / breaking down . If I don't see her or atleast talk to her then my mind goes bad and anxiety and paranoia and unhappiness just takes over . Obviously a bad thing . Best avoided . How do I do that though ? How do I cope ? I would really appreciate suggestions / advice / instructions .

If more information is needed , just ask .
Thank you .
