COOL YOUR JETS, ELAINE. To be fair, the last thing anyone wants is for the entire party to lose their sense of hearing and time and miss a flight.

Overpacking report

Ever since The Great Sock Overpacking Incident of 2015, I have been trying to learn to travel lighter. Part of this process is that I post an overpacking report after coming home from each trip. I did pretty well on this 5-night trip. I packed but did not use:

one pair of bike shorts

one pair of socks (not really overpacking since it's good to bring an extra pair just in case. In this case, I'd brought 7 pairs of socks, but one day I did indeed wear two pairs as it was cool in the morning but warmed up enough in the afternoon that I wanted to change into thinner socks.)

one pair of underpants (not really overpacking since it's good to bring an extra pair just in case.)

I used all the rest of my clothing, including the raincoat and the hiking shoes!

Planning for travel as a disabled person is so full of anxiety inducing factors.

Will I be able to walk a certain distance without internal screams of pain? If not, will I get a wheelchair aid? (I recently traveled to Australia and I couldn't get wheelchair aid there, so the fear is legit.)

Will I be able to stand for long in cues without collapsing and causing a scene?

Will I be able to go shopping with family members who are not disabled like me? (Can't opt out of it because they want me there.)

Will I be able to escape the foot sores...the knee pain that comes and goes...or the general body ache that comes with travel?

I hope I don't faceplant anywhere. (It has happened before and it's embarrassing, because I can't get up on my feet without assistance.)

Have I packed enough medicines to deal with the pain?

Those^ are just the buzzing worries from the top of my thoughts at present. I know there's more... gathering in the pits of my mind, a churning soup of anxiety.

is anyone else also really paranoid on trains like what if I accidentally got on the wrong train where my ticket isn't valid and they'll throw me out and SHOOT ME

#what if i suddenly can't read anymore?? #and misread all my train information #travel anxiety #but I stopped my mum from telling me what do do this time because she's not helping as much as she thinks she is #my post #personal

This ends my comics camp travelogue! It was such a memorable experience and a fun week. I left feeling energized to keep working on my passion projects and keep making friends in the comics community.

MAC and Lew visit New York City. Fifth blog in the series.

8/4/2011. Thursday 11:22am

Flying United. The plane left on time. 27,000 feet headed up to 36,000 feet.

“Thor” is the movie.

Landing time 1:47 pm!

I found the classical music station

So, I’m proud of us. Martin stuck it out and in the end said “it was fun”.

It will be nice to get our lives and our rooms back.

NYNY is—people—-everywhere you turn! And, they all are going somewhere all the time, like machines, staring blankly straight ahead. They are well dressed’ dark, solemn. Except for at night, when they stop, are loud and in bars. If they talk to you, they are friendly.

I feel anxious and excited. Kind of felt this way the whole trip.

Dealing with awful travel anxiety and physical health symptoms. I'm hoping things will get better but lately I've been so severely nervous/stressed and can't really talk to anyone right now. Just keep me in your thoughts if you can, please. Thank you and hope everything is going well for whoever reads this. I appreciate you all so much. 💜

#anxiety #travel anxiety #health anxiety #chronic illness #my appetite is down again #and I had a migraine earlier today but I'm trying not to overuse my med for it #it went away eventually but only because I was able to rest... which is going to be hard to do tomorrow #I haven't slept yet either #but surprisingly it's earlier than I thought #BUT my friend lands in 7 hours and I am n e r v o u s #I'm so scared of getting sick on the trip and ruining things #or just being more quiet and anxious than she's used to me being #I'm praying I act like myself rather than let anxiety take the wheel #I'm the one who's more outgoing so I feel weirdly pressured if that makes sense? idk #and one of the highlights of the trip is supposed to be the food so if my appetite is a mess I feel like I'll be missing out #I'm just awful at eating when I'm super anxious #and awful at sleeping too #and just awful at being a functioning human overall #I already prepared for the trip in terms of packing and stuff #but I'm terrified of leaving something behind #and my obsessive and intrusive thoughts have been beating me down lately #I will try to do some breathing exercises in bed and watch a calm show or something #but yeah... the timing of this trip really was kind of eghhhh #hate when my brain decides to get stuck in an overthinking loop #also my body needs to get its act together #I know I need to be more compassionate with myself but guhhhh #if you read all these tags I applaud you #but also sorry for the rambling

Travel anxiety eating me alive. I gotta rep my boss at a con in Düsseldorf this week, dipping the toes into that eu market and I've prepped all my shit for it. My brain still can't relax.

My brain in christ, we're gonna be FIIIINE. Just need to get used to doing anime conventions solo. I think it's just the thought of GETTING THERE that gets me bad. Once I'm there, I coast by just swell.

Overpacking Report

I didn't have a chance to post about this trip before I went on it, but that doesn't let me off the hook from posting an overpacking report! I must remain vigilant to avoid repeating the Great Sock Overpacking Incident of 2015!

On short notice, I took a 4-night trip (including the overnight flight out) to Germany for a funeral. [This was not my loss as I never knew the deceased; I was there to support Wife and her family.] It was pretty cold and intermittently wet there during my stay, but I did really well on the not overpacking front. I brought but did not use:

one pair of socks

a silk thermal top

a couple of PT tools

I did slightly underpack, in that I wished I'd brought my binoculars or camera. I was expecting the weather to preclude any opportunities for birding, but I'd forgotten that I could do some birding through the window both at Father-in-law's house and at the home of my in-law-in-laws. Ah well.

This weekend is going to be the first time I get to travel with an airplane and as the day of our departure grows closer I've started to feel more and more anxious. I didn't ever think I'd feel this scared but apparently I do. I don't exactly know why that is. Everything is in order, we booked the flight and our hotel room. We still have to buy insurance and write a packing list, but other than that we are good to go. Still I feel so unprepared and like I'm not at all ready for this vacation. It's so weird because we wanted this for so long.

Ever since my partner and I got together (it's gonna be our 7th anniversary this year) we talked about a vacation abroad, we both wanted it for quite some time, we saved up for this and now that the time is here I find myself almost dreading this trip. Maybe it's because I've never flown before or the fact that we are going to a foreign country. Both of us speak English, my partner speaks a bit of German too, so it shouldn't be a big problem. But I still feel so uneasy about the whole thing.

Have you ever felt this kind of travel anxiety before? Is this common? Please send me your experiences and tips for handling this if you have any. I really don't want to ruin this vacation with my extensive worrying.

I simply do not like any of these air bnbs and plan to simply attach many balloons to my perfectly acceptable own home.

Like if you are ever suddenly and very unhelpfully filled with a cold, heavy sense of dread.
