["My husband  had to go out of town for work so I've been home alone this week.", "Oh, I'm sure that's a bit boring have you had fun stuff to do?", "No, actually I've been having the worst time.  I know I'm perfectly safe, but I feel like someone is going to break in or something.  I cannot sleep at all at night and end up sleeping during the day."]
I'm sorry to hear that. If your neighborhood is rough take precautions, otherwise maybe try to find a tea or something to help sooth.
