Separation anxiety/sadness
Hey all.
I seem to be having a separation anxiety issue, however it doesn’t stem from anything in particular.
In September I was made redundant from work, and for medical reasons my wife has also been off work for a few months. During this time I looked for work, and spent a lot of time in the house with my wife.
I recently found employment again, so my situation has become instantly better because I have an income again and a lot of pressure has been taken off of us both.
The thing is, even though things are looking up, when I’m at work I have feelings of sadness and loneliness, and I think it’s because I’m separate from her after spending so many months constantly together.
Has anyone else experienced this?
