Getting really anxious about going to London
My family bought tickets for my 40th birthday (tmrw) for phantom of the opera matinee on thursday in London (me, mum,dad & sister) - im trying not to panic about going (i used to work on london) but im now panicking
Set off i think by speaking to to my mother a little while ago & she was asking me do I want to eat in London, *before or after the show - we could have something at paddington we could have a burger somewhere blah blah blah - as she puts it she knows I have eating out issues & butterflies about going out !!!! *
If I told her no its not butterflies it's social anxiety & I've just started taking citalopram - she would say its just butterflies everyone gets that (she has said it before) you don't need to be on antibiotics!!
I was trying to focus on getting on a train to London & to the theatre as am hoping that when in the theatre I will be preoccupied watching the performance but now on top of that, that they are going to want to go out & eat, which most of the time brings on a panic attack
Now I feel really tense, lightheaded, jittery & my stomach is churning & I'm chain smoking since the call !!
Any advice to get me thru this and Thursday*
