solo travel anxiety
i have severe anxiety about my upcoming solo trip in paris. i'm gonna fly alone and stay at a hotel alone but i will meet some people there. it will be the first time i travel alone and the second time i go to another country. i just keep making excuses not to go in fear something bad will happen and i cant control these thoughts. i was super excited in the beginning. also, in may i also cancelled a trip i was supposed to go to because i was too scared, and i had the same bad feelings. i fear that it will always be like this and if i cancel this one too i'll be stuck in a circle. i really want to go because i know i will have fun but my brain is stopping me. i don't know this is a "gut" feeling or anxiety. my ocd also got worse because of it

Travel can be scary but the feeling of overcoming those fears and accomplishing a solo trip is awesome.
We really have little control in life although we feel we do in our basic surroundings. People often say they worry about what if this or that happens ... i never have heard a positive this or that.... what if you meet a great friend or you see something amazing etc....
i prefer to travel alone now .. make it an adventure can pretend you are anyone in the world or try anything.....
have a good trip and tell us how it went.
