I am scared to travel. In the past it excited me to no end to imagine the beautiful castles of Europe or the beaches of Fiji, and just wanna go. Airports and travel made me happy and feel fresh and alive. Now I actually have the chance in the upcoming months to really go out there and do it and I’m scared of my anxiety. Scared of freaking out in a foreign place and not having anyone to turn to or support me. I hate feeling volatile, it’s the f****** worse, but that’s how I imagine myself when I think about going abroad. What can I do? It’s not like I can ever be 100% sure I won’t be scared when I’m there, but I feel like if I don’t do it, if I don’t travel on my own, I’ll regret it. I just want to be young and feel care free, and live without these fears.
