Sleepless Nights

My husband left for CDL Training February 10th, and since then I have not had a full nights sleep.

We have been together for 2 years, and married for 8 months, and have never spent more then a night away from eachother, even in the very begining of our relationship...it was instant love and I moved in with him almost immediately.

I find myself sleeping for a few hours during the day, and I think it's because at night I feel alone...sleeping by myself in the bed seems unreal to me.

During the day ehh it seems like a nap. I cry often, because I can't tell him, because I'm afraid he will leave for home. I had a fight with my sister-in-law the other night and I cried like a baby on the phone with my husband, he said "That's it, I'm quitting and comning home I can't stand not being able to help you, I can't stand being so far away when you need me."

I obviously talked him out of it and everything is fine now with that situation, but I'm 27 y/o I should be able to get through this...
