Hi Kate, wow Greece is just gorgeous you lucky thing.!
Its hard going back to the airport because youre brain has associated airports with panic attacks.
What you need to do is prepare...get some tunes on your ipod or whatever, get some bach rescue remedy losenges, a paper bag to rebreathe........
Lack of sleep can definately cause anxiety symptoms, so get plenty of rest before hand.
You must try not to concentrate on the thoughts of panic.....instead...think about all the great things youll be doing on holiday. Positive thinking goes a long way! Enjoy your holiday, Im so jelous!!! You will be fine x

What exactly is in that remedy lozenges/drink? Has anyone ever had a reaction to it, or have felt worse when using it?

Natural essences of flowers like Rock rose and several others I believe Jo, although I havent used them for sometime. I dont know if anyone has had a reaction, Ive never heared any problems myself
