Right before a big trip, i start worrying like mad and exactly the same as you, have thoughts that i don't want to go... It's always when i go to new places, I think it has something to do with uncertainty, and I have been trying to find a cure, but no dice yet. Certain relaxation techniques like playing an instrument or freewriting help a little bit, but it's only temporary. hope this helps! I get this way too!!

I just Googled pre-travel anxiety and you popped up. I get the EXACT same way. It's always fine once I'm on the plane but the week before I am a wreck! I know it starts when I begin to cancel the trip in my head. Then I start to worry about everything from the arrangements for the dog to packing. I have to tell myself how irrational my anxiety is and reassure myself that I'll be fine. Ack! I just Googled pre-travel anxiety and you popped up. I get the EXACT same way.
