I've been woth my boyfriend for two years now but I've known him for 8. He gets triggered fairly fast and he ends up feeling anxious for hours or he gets very intense anxiety attacks where he can't breathe well and he starts crying uncontrollably. The first thing I used to do when I sense that he's getting anxious was give him a hug or even just hold his hand. Physical touch seemed to help him so much. It immediately calmed him down and he would be able to talk about what was making him feel scared or overwhelmed or threatened. However, we're now in a long distance relationship and I haven't seen him in a year. It's very difficult for both of us, but this specifically makes it unbearable at times. We both know that we'll see each other soon, but saying that doesn't help when he's anxious. What should I do?
