Prioritize open and honest communication with your partner about your feelings and needs. Establish routines for staying connected, such as regular video calls or shared activities. Practice self-care to maintain your mental well-being, including engaging in hobbies, socializing with friends, and seeking support from loved ones. Set goals and plans for the future together to maintain a sense of closeness and shared purpose.

Coping with the challenges of a long-distance relationship, especially when it affects your mental health, requires open communication, patience, and self-care. Stay connected with your partner through regular communication via calls, texts, or video chats to maintain intimacy and emotional support. Set realistic expectations and goals for the relationship while prioritizing quality time together. Practice self-care by engaging in activities that promote mental well-being, such as exercise, hobbies, and spending time with friends and family. Seek support from loved ones or a therapist to process emotions and develop coping strategies for managing stress and anxiety related to the distance. Remember to focus on the strengths and positives of the relationship, and remain hopeful about the future together.

Boom Video call helps a lot in distant relationships. I know at some point you will get weary but because you cherish your relationship, you have to do it. Also social media can spice things up too.
