Separation anxiety: Separation anxiety is a common problem. It can manifest emotionally (anxious) and physically (nausea, headaches, stomachaches) You should consider talking to a psychologist who can give you insight into the cause and equip you with coping tools. You can also utilize modern connectivity tools to stay in touch, such as facetime or zoom.

Yes: There are several things, one would be to keep in touch regularly with your wife. It would also be a good choice to begin journaling, get some of the feeling "out". I would also suggest developing a practice of mindfulness or meditation. The other good anxiety buster in exercise which I would suggest to do regularly . Getting a counselor to talk with regularly might also be quite helpful
