Hi all, I seem to have a particular problem when considering traveling away from home other than by car - I wonder if anyone else can identify with this.
I take medication which quite possibly is the cause of the tiredness. This does not normally cause me any great distress as I am retired, therefore when at home I can simply rest until the tiredness leaves me, which is usually after a few hours. But when I consider traveling, say by coach, for a holiday perhaps, I suddenly feel very anxious, thinking that the tiredness would be such that I would feel a need to return home immediately the feeling came upon me- which of course, if I was on a coach some hundred or so miles from home I could not do - hence, I fear a PANIC attack. And this is why I have for some years now not gone away from home.
I am desperately trying to find a solution, as I have booked a coach holiday this Christmas, and am already feeling very nervous. Any suggestions please.
