reducing travel & general anxiety.

hi guys,

in a few months i am traveling 23 hours on a plane to a new country for the fist time. i have flown inside my country a few times but it was many moons ago. i have so much to plan, especially with my arthritis and back, i use a stick and my part blindness due to my diabetes. (diabetic retinapathy) i am arranging through the travel agent to have a helper be there when i arrive. my meds need planning, i am half way through this. my anxiety has been increased lately, with stress, nervous tension and a cancer scare. my doctor noticed it as well. i am not on any meds for anxiety, i have been though in the past. i know what i need to do, i know what to do, have even prioritized it. my methods for reducing it are walking and music. maybe some travel-calm from the chemist will help. any ideas are greatfully received.

with healing compassion 2 all.

thanks SC.

you are right. need to pinpoint. i think the long flight is one.
second are definate health concerns, especially with my diabetes.
yes fear of the unknown is the other. i can get a diabetic diet, so this should be ok, have got plans to combat hypos. having massive anxiety about my dog. someone is going to look after her, but i still worry as she suffers from seizures. i will be okay i guess. thank you for the advice and the dark font, it helps.

with healing compassion,

thanks SC,

yes i will be in contact by phone, my sister is going to drop by on my mate every few days to make sure everything is okay. i am over-reacting, big time. take a breath jamie and get a grip!! thank you for your calming words mate. i appreciate it. no not the USA.
it is just all of the tedious planning that is anxiety provoking. i will be okay, i guess i just needed some confirmation that i am on the right track. thank you very much.

in kind friendship,
jamie
