Hi everyone,
To cut a long story short, Im both anorexic (medically diagnosed) and emetophobic (self diagnosed)…im not doing so well with either right now - they tend to fuel each other, and on Friday I'm meant to be travelling 250 miles to the south of the country to look for houses (were in the process of moving). The trouble is, any form of travelling and transport provokes terrible anxiety to the point where I have avoided going out, and even travelling within a 10 mile radius of my house has become a challenge recently.
I have to go and do this, but Im terrified of the anxiety I know im going to feel. Im also not "strong" physically right now because of anorexia, which also doesnt help. Im terrified of my anxiety and/or the travelling causing me to vomit (neither has happened but ive been very close).
Can anyone offer any advice?
Im at my wits end
:weep:
