So here's my dilemma

[Shadowwin]

This week is turning into a long week already.. of course it's a week of dread for me as well. Friday Morning my husband and step son fly out to spend the Holiday in Tennesee with his parents I couldn't go because I couldn't get the week off from work which leaves me here in this house.. all alone.. I hate being alone..

Secondly my brother wants me to come spend Christmas with him it's an hour and a half drive from my house and i am turning myself inside out over this the very last time I drove down there was the weekend of my most major attack ever ... and I'm terrified that it's going to happen again.

I keep telling myself i can do it that it's time but the closer i get to Friday the more I dread doing it at all. I'm just glad I have therapy in the morning.

Hi Talia

I hope you get comfort and some coping techniques from your therapist to help you.

Keep busy and distracted up to that point and then make yourself up a toolkit to help you get through. Here are a few suggestions.

What would be in your 'Anxiety Toolbox'? (http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3938)

We're not going anywhere so do come back and have a vent about it if you want to.

Your anxiety is the human representation of the pictures that you paint using your many vivid colours of revolving and reoccurring thoughts.
