my fiancé is currently deployed in eastern europe and i'm experiencing a significant increase in my anxiety. we only got a week's notice of his deployment and i was living with him for the summer, so we only had one week to pack him up, pack me up and say our goodbyes. he's supposed to be gone for around 9 months. 

my heart will start RACING out of nowhere - my resting HR is ~55bpm and it'll shoot up to ~125bpm and stay that way for quite a while. the heart racing isn't even preceded by anxiety-provoking thoughts, like for example it just happened to me spontaneously as i'm sitting on the couch watching TV with my family. these "attacks" feel like panic attacks but less powerful, because i don't respond much to them as a seasoned panic attack-haver (i know what they are and that they won't harm me, so i try to just ride them out and not react much). i can feel the adrenaline rushing through my body. 

i have a beta blocker prescription and normal EKG result under my belt. i'm also in ERP therapy for my OCD. i guess i'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and what has worked to help with it. i'm hoping not to deal with this for the full 9 months. TIA :)
