Writing down exactly what I'm worrying about help too. For some reason seeing it in black and white helps me see how silly some of my worries actually are.

Would planning a special 'you-time' night while your fiance is gone maybe help with the anxiety? a spa night? or an eat ice cream straight out of the carton night? or any whatever-your-favorite-hobby is night?
Good idea, I give myself too much time to just sit and think and then my imagination comes into play (fear something may happen to my loved ones while they are away), makes me feel better there are others that get this way too, and you came up with some good ideas. Thanks!
