How to calm myself down with seperation?

I’m scared my FP is gonna leave me. I haven’t heard from her in almost 3 weeks (calls is what I mean) she texted me Sunday and I still have yet to hear a response from her even though I replied after she texted. Any advice on how to calm myself down with distance like this? It’s eating at me and making me scared.

Hi there 💜 In terms of general ideas for calming down, you could maybe try some of the distress tolerance strategies linked here:

I'm wondering, is it normal for the two of you to call each another pretty often? Normal for her to reply to texts pretty quickly? Maybe she's been busy or distracted or something for a couple weeks. (Feels like a positive sign that she texted on Sunday though.)

Thank you I’ll try them! She normally gets back to me a lot quicker so it’s hard to understand why she hasn’t been able to talk much.
