I need help please.....
My husband left for boot camp a few weeks ago, and i dont know how to cope with this, i'm finding it very hard to do my every day activities. What i would like to know is how everyone does it... being able to be away from your loved one for what seems like a life time. If i cant get through these few months how do i get through him getting deployed when it happens? Can someone please help me....

You WILL get through it. Don't focus on how much longer you have to see him, just get through each day. Get into a routine and live your life, otherwise you'll drive yourself crazy.
Forget about the deployment for now - you'll have a good amount of time before you have to face that.

Keep a journal or start a blog to get your feelings out. Pick a day of the week to start the week off... I use Mondays because the kids head back to school and that means that another lonely weekend is over. Spend lots and lots of time on MSOS.

And OP...no need to double post the same thing.
Everyone can see them still. No need to multi-post.

I LOVE MY HUSBAND! :)
|
I know this may just sound stupid...but it WILL get better... the month I thought that I was jsut going to die... I would cry when I woke up, went to sleep, ate, showered, drove, and a lot of times when I was at work I would go sit in the bathroom and cry my eyes out! You HAVE to keep yourself busy... I got a part time job when my husband was gone...in addition to my full time job..and spend time with your friends and family because soon you will be leaving them and you will wish you had spent more time with them... also this site is great and will keep you busy too. You can meet a lot of people on here. I wish that I had this site when my husband was in boot. What branch is your husband in? I will PM you my cell number and you can text me any time... I will try to help you from being sad
 You will get through this I promise

You kind of just have to do it. I think that if you're unable to do your normal activities, then it would kind of be like a downward spiral from there. Sometimes you just have to fake it till you make it, you know? Smile, go out with friends, pretend that everything is alright, and eventually it will be.

Stay and be positive, keep your head up, stay as busy as you can and spend some time on MSOS to talk to and get to know others who're in the same or in a similar situation, take step by step and do day by day!
It's hard and difficult to deal with at 1st, but with/in time it gets better though! Being seperated due to a LDR, deployment or for whatever other reason's not always easy and has ups and downs, but you can do it! Stick around here, make some friends or pals and enjoy being on MSOS, cause it's fun to be here! Good luck with everything and I hope you feel much better ASAP! It'll and may take a while for you to adjust dealing with this seperation, but after you adjusted, it'll be different for you and your emotions won't constantly take a toll on you! If you need some 1 to talk to, you can always PM me! Regards and much love!

Get into a routine. Make a schedule of shows you like to watch each day, which day is shopping day, choose a day to give yourself a facial or get a pedicure. Once you have an expectation of what is to come each day, it becomes very comfy and time flies.
Or, if you're like me, pick up something new like a hobby or a new job. Learning something new takes 100% focus, so you don't even have time to think about anything else!
