Hi, I am going to be taking a flight this Friday 7.30am to go to another city to see a psychiatrist for a formal diagnosis for dissociative identity disorder. It's the first time taking a domestic flight, and travelling on my own. I am going to be anxious and anxiety causes me to trance out and not think straight. I'm wondering if anyone will be around to chat with, like travel with me, distract me for the couple of hours I will leave the house to my destination. I think that describing what's going on, what I am seeing, etc, will stop me from dissociating. Apparently I have to be there at 5.30 to fly out at 7.30! I guess that means I will be leaving at 4.30am. I must be crazy...lol. No one has to commit, cause to be honest, I may not even remember writing this request. 🤞🤞🤞:face_with_rolling_eyes:🤦‍♀️🤪😂

Hi @Lemonjuice , so sorry to have completely missed the day. I'm so glad you went though. Sometimes we really need those answers. It sounds great that you know you have that support if you choose it. That choice doesn't need to be now.

What an adventure and you did it! Loved the comment about the fine scenery you saw too 😉. I hope you are resting knowing that's one adventure done for now. Just wanted you to know I've read your post and glad you are home safe and sound now.
