Stress Center Peer Support

Hi everyone, this is my first post.
For many years I have been struggling with anticipatory anxiety which leads to extreme nausea and an inability to eat (especially in public places like restaurants). The inability to eat leads to further panic and "what ifs" going through my mind.

I am moving to Europe on Sunday and I am extremely worried about my ability to cope with the situation.

Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

I have the same issues. I always gets so nervous that I feel to sick to eat. I have to go home from work on lunch just to try and eat something.

I found it helpful instead of trying to eat a large meal is to snack on smaller things that have a lot of protien. I usually snack on trail mix or nuts. Also, Slimfast and Boost shakes have a lot of protien and vitamins to help get you through your day and are a lot easier to digest.

I know it will be tough to do while traveling but if you are able to pack little snacks for yourself it would help.
