Anyone else get super anxious before a holiday?
I always feel like I never enjoy the week or so before a holiday because I'm always filled with worry. If its not about one thing it's about something else.
Each year I convince myself in the few days running up to my trip that I'm sick or at least going to get sick. I've always suffered from health anxiety, but feel that's boosted around the time of going on holiday. Anyone else get this way? I truly feel like I'm spoiling the run-up to the trip for myself and my husband atm, but can't seem to shake this fear and worry.

Yup! I know exactly what you mean and it drives me crazy. I try to ignore it and concentrate on being excited about the holiday but a week or two beforehand it just creeps up on me and before I know it I'm not sleeping properly, worrying about every little niggle, which is ridiculous as I'm hardly ever ill.
I'm off to runDLP next week and it doesn't help that DD and someone at work have announced they have colds If you find a solution to it let me know! |

I am the same, my run up week is next week and being someone who suffers from anxiety too I always feel better when Im checked in at the airport. All sorts enter my thoughts and you are correct it can take away the excitement a little, When do you go?

Thanks both, it's so stressful. I would love a solution. I'm going to use my meditation app later and see if that helps settle my nerves.
We leave on Sunday to fly on Monday, so all I'm thinking about at the moment is that I have two more working days to go to the doctors if there is something wrong with me. So sad isn't it. I just can't switch off the worry. We have insurance of course, and I know that worst case scenario I could go to a healthcare provider in the US but even so. I've actually given myself a back knot today worrying about it. I think I need a week off before my holiday next time... lol

I'm with you on that one. Still got my eye on the hurricane forecast as we speak which isn't helping.

Mines started already and i have 6 weeks to go yet. I suffer with anxiety in general about everything but it goes into overdrive when i have a holiday coming up. Especially when i have 2 kids that seem to pick up every illness going. Dont think we’ve ever had a holiday where someone wasn’t ill a few days before. I can only relax when i get on the plane
