Going On Holiday With Anxiety And A Toast To My Best Friend!

For many adults it is difficult to plan a holiday especially if you are with your best mate who does nothing to help you except give you the money to pay his half of the holiday. However when you are going to be 17 when you go on holiday it is more difficult to plan a holiday as you don’t particularly know your best friends schedule for summer and don’t know if you will have a great ‘fallout’ before it. You know how high school can be.  My best friend ‘Michael’ (fake name) would always help me and know of my anxiety so would never push me to do anything I don’t want to do.

My anxiety hinders me for going to really busy places such as London even Glasgow where I stay I struggle with. ‘Michael’ really wanted to go to London for after s6 with me but I had to say no just because I know I would not be able to handle it. I have suggested Bath which is a city in England and Whitby which is in York. They are quieter and I will probably have no anxiety attacks. I know my anxiety affects my daily life, even getting up in the morning but I know it will if it has not happened yet will affect my friends and my social life (which I don’t have anyway).

I know I could get help but I know I will be too anxious to speak to anyone about it. ‘Michael’ who Is basically by brother is always there and I want to thank him for it. I know I can be an arse sometimes and barely talk on messenger (again my anxiety sorry) but I will never forget the times you have been there for me and I hope we can be friends for the rest of our lives. I know we go through shit (family life) but I know we will always be there for each other. I love you my best friend,
