Hi guys,
Just a quick one. I am going on a dream holiday to LA in April next year and for the last 6 or 7 years of my life I've had crippling health anxiety. It was just starting to get better this year.
However, I've had a recent health scare (you can see in my recent posts!) so my health anxiety is now at an all-time-high... :wacko: I've relapsed and am noticing every single sensation in my body again, and jumping to the "oh god i'm dying" thoughts again.
So I REALLY don't want this anxiety to ruin my trip as myself and my partner have worked hard for it, it's cost us a lot of money and is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
What's the best way to get over this stupid anxiety in time for my trip? There's no way I'll be able to get therapy in time (waiting lists are usually around 10-12 months for CBT!).
Any ideas how I can combat this as best I can between now and April?
Thanks in advance for any advice you may have! :hugs:
