Hi Lollipop
The first thing is, well done, for getting there. Also, whatever anyone says to you, it isn't going to stop the anxiety, so, take deep breaths, hold, let go.... distraction is good, so every time you feel something starting up, get up move around, try to stay as calm as you can, I find the more I fight it, the less it gets, if I give in to it, I wouldn't leave the house, so, I keep fighting, it seems to completely overwhelm me if I don't fight.
Nothing bad is going to happen, all your family are there, maybe, you should try and get five minutes away, so you can deep breathe, or gather yourself together, I do that, I give myself a good talking to, shake myself down, and carry on.
It's not easy, and you have my complete sympathy, wishing you well,lollipop, and hope you have a great time....xxxx

What's the worst that might happen?  For me it's getting ill or DH getting ill  - I don't cope at home leave alone when away 

...... and breath!  Do you hide your feelings?  I tend to.

I always want to rush through the holiday and get home, so that I know if I've got through without a panic attack, if that makes sense 

However: you have packed cases, got on a 'plane, not lost your Passport and arrived!  It isn't easy.   I envy anyone who can do stuff without apparent problems.

Hello lollipop.

I completely sympathise, this type of anxiety is horrible. I tell people that it may not be rational but it certainly feels real.

I hope that it's a comfort to know that other women feel the same so you are not alone.

I'm sorry I can't be of more help but hopefully you'll feel better soon.

Take care and sending hugs.

Hi Lollipop

I just wanted to say well done for going so try and relax now you're there. I say this because I should have gone to Corfu last week with my husband last week for 2 weeks. Instead, we are at home in rainy England.

I had a meltdown (breakdown) with my anxiety about 8 weeks ago so we cancelled it about 5 weeks ago. I really wish I was there now but at the time we cancelled it I could not have gone. We also lost the majority of the money😢.

Anyway, you are there with all your family, so as the others have said, take some deep breaths and use distraction techniques. Have a lovely holiday- you are certainly in the best place for the weather.
