Need advice on how to feel closer

My partner and i are both going through a personal rough patch right now. I'm doing my final exams in school and it has been stressing me out completely. I can't sleep, i can't eat, i feel sick, etc. My partner on the other hand has some family drama going on right now that is really impacting him. He hasn't been sleeping well and is very exhausted from worrying too much.

These past few days its been feeling like there's a different kind of distance between us. We talk less and there's alot of anxious silence when we're on the phone. It feels so awful and it's making me really sad.

Is this just something we will need to wait out and get through, or are there things i could do to reconnect us and go back to the way things were.

Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated, thank you

I can't believe that the person i love most in this whole world has to live so far away it's so unfair. I have nothing to complain about though because i will see him in 17 days and i will get to stay over for so long and some people on here have to wait years before seeing eachother again so i'm really lucky compared to those people. I just love him so much he is everything i have ever dreamed of and i can't imagine a life without him. He makes everything else go quiet and he makes me feel so safe, i'm so lost without him.
