Please help, I have the weirdest feeling that something bad is gonna happen?

My boyfriend is away to visit his extended family (this is the first year we're dating) and I have this awful paranoia that his plane will crash on his flight back. I don't know why but it's eating away at me and I'm just scared. How do I help this?

    You can't.

    Learn to understand what you can control and what you can't in life.

    It's a shame that it's only at this point it seems you're realizing that anyone you care about can be taken from you in a heartbeat. All you can do is prepare yourself for the possibility before it happens ... that way it won't "eat away at you" when they're away from you.
