Actually I did more than survive. I really enjoyed it, and even managed to have one day without a panic attack! I also found the whole being somewhere new and seeing different things really helpful for the fuzzy headedness as I was completely distracted.

Perhaps they could prescribe holidays on the NHS? :D

Am really glad you had a good time! I am off to Sardinia on Friday and am really looking forward to it, but am already anxious about the plane. My plan is to:

a: take valium

b: drink wine

And hopefully I'll make it there!

Thanks guys. It has boosted my confidence knowing that I can do it. And twister I also found it useful to have a personal cd/tape player with me. Good for distraction. :D

Thanks guys. I'm feeling pretty anxious about some other stuff this morning so am hanging on to this as a reminder of how well I can do! :)

I went to Vienna and did the culture vulture bit. If you go here there are some piccies:

Wow the pics are great! Steve has always fancied Vienna and I think I may now be persuaded....

When things get tough, just keep reminding yourself how well you did.

Lots of love Jo xxx

You did really well.

I know how daunting a holiday can be as I just come back myself. I agree the distraction definately helps.

The photos are great.
