What to do when I feel jealous?

I've always had problems with jealousy. It's so bad! Sometimes it drives me to complete sadness. Most of the time, it drives me to tears. I know it is something I can overcome with practice and knowledge. This is a relief.

Right now I am away from my boyfriend, so of course I won't get jealous because I don't see him interacting with other girls. But I know the problems is still there. Once I return back to college where we hang out and see each other often I will run into those jealousy troubles again. I do Not want this to happen again. It is so bad...just so destructive to everyone around me especially myself. How do I solve this? What do I have to do to eliminate jealousy?
