Once again wanting to know I’m not alone out there in this big world of anxiety. Yesterday at this time I posted under a different name (cause I couldn’t log on as me - Needtovent ). Was about my vacation in uk, husband taking ill, panic consumed me. Long day of travel and got to our ne xt destination. Husband feeling a bit better. We’ll see in AM if he wants to use urgent care here, since yesterdays attempt failed. The night time is getting to me again, so I pick up my phone and seek this community. Not sure if what I’m feeling is still anxiety or if I’m getting ill. I just wanna go home so will see about that in AM. Can you talk to me? Please?

It’s middle of the night in the UK and closing in on midnight in the US I think it’s just a low traffic time for anxiety and depression support. only insomniacs and self centered complainers on right now

Woah adlon57 deep breaths stretch have a water maybe … legitimate feeling scared of dementia witnessed my dad decline and pass away due to complications from it.

Thank you for checking back. Long story of our travels up to this point. First half was great. Then his not feeling well, I began panicking. Urgent care in Liverpool fell through. Decided to tough it out. Now In Amsterdam for last part of trip and planning on going to urgent care here. My mind is racing, maybe I’ve got cancer - never had this fear but our pastor just died of pancreatic cancer in 4 months time!!!I’m not eating much, trying to stay hydrated. If I’m not sleeping it’s better to get up so I’m walking around hotel. I don’t think we’ll get to any of our planned visits 😔. Gotta go back and check on hubs! Thanks

Was in touch with Dolphin14 about the messed up accts. Perhaps she removed it. It’s weird cause I have the emails showing the responses, but now can’t access them…

Dolphin14 is not an admin here. she’s a moderator on heal my ptsd.

Thank you for clarifying that for everyone. I wouldn't have seen it if you didn't call my attention to it

I just wanted to clarify that I'm not on the admin team on this site. You can find the admin team under the members list.

I just wanted to clear up the speculation.

I did not indicate in any way that I was part of the admin team. I am a peer here like everyone else. In pm I stated I have never changed my user name so I wasn't sure of why this happened. I said I would stick to the one that worked for you.

Dolphin you have been a support through this. Thank you so much. I was just speculating, I’m sure I screwed everything up when I tried opening an acct with different email, yet somehow my phone wants to sign me in with original acct. tech stuff is beyond me.

Thanks to everyone who is checking in. That’s what I need when I’m trembling.

You’re out of country, expectations of culture leisure and travel instead you’re unwell and frantic, how fortunate to lean on the community here for support and relief, that’s really what’s important, wonderful it was a success.

After prayer, you folks were my next thought. Did not want to worry my kids. Just had another little melt down to learn that urgent care is by appt only - no walk in unless we go to ER. Which he didn’t want to do as he’s a bit feeling better, Covid negative x 2 - so we’re going home. Managed to get us on same flight that we’d be taking in 2 days. Never thought I could do it so rushed and in my phone, but husband took over all the packing up and checking out. Bye to Netherlands but this feels like the right thing to do. Phew! I need to exhale!

I'm glad I could be supportive when you needed help.

I hope you and your husband can enjoy the rest of your trip
