Seperation Anxiety?

[sassy-snape]

Hi my boyfriend thinks i have seperation anxiety.

The only time we are away from each other is thursdays, fridays and saturdays.

thursday afternoon he goes to the sports complex and invites his friend round after till we go to bed and then works the following days.

When he is away from me i rarely eat, i constantly go to the toilet, and sometimes am sick, pace about abit near the time he comes home.

i have two down spells a week usually ending in me crying and us having to talk it through, on a thursday and on a sunday. which is running my partner down and putting distance between us.

i really dont no how to solve this and get rid of these moods till at least once a month.

Also when we are around other friends i cling to him and nearly sit on him, even though im friends with them as well, but it only seems to happen with other male friends. i also used to inappropriatly touch him in public but thats my way of comforting myself.

he put me right now and is teaching me how to be around other people. he called me wild and feral as well to try tell me how severe i am around strangers and friends as im not social at all. i took this very badly and am only just recovering from this. it stung alot to here that however necessary it was.

i have not been diagnosed with ptsd but judging from what you have heard do you think i have it?

If you think you have PTSD, you need to see a professional who can diagnose you. As for the separation axiety, is it that you see your boyfriend as some sort of savior or protector?

yes i do, my mum has gone on holiday today and im here alone monday to friday and im looking after her cat and sleeping here. my other half is at home and thinks it will do us good if we had time apart, but i have been fuming since i got to my mums without him and all i want to do is go home again.

he lives in town and with people, i am alone with no contact with other people whatsoever. i just want him with me or to go home, im nearly in tears
