[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP - First I also suffer from generalized anxiety so I completely empathize. I understand how you might be fixated on the cruise over the next 3.5 months negatively affecting your day-to-day. I like the suggestions about therapy/meds if they are an option.

For me, it helps my anxiety to feel reassured so I want to highlight our positive experiences. I've been on 3 Disney cruises. We've been on that many because my kids have a blast. I think seeing your kids light up again and again throughout the cruise might help your anxiety. In particular my kids love meeting the characters and bumping into them in the hallway. Playing in the pools and meeting friends there. Having the opportunity to eat ice cream 24/7. Looking forward to closing out each night with a Disney show in the theater. The kids clubs are also really cool and provide a nice break for parents if you need it.

I've also felt very safe on a Disney cruise and they are very accommodating to special needs. A positive customer experience seems to be the core of their business model.

I hope this helps! Good luck![/quote]

Thank you for this.  I think my first experience was especially bad and I’ve heard Disney Cruises are much better than Carnival.  I do want to go, in that I want to have fun with my family but this anxiety is really taking over.  I’m on medication for anxiety and feel silly upping my dose for a one week event months away but I’ll talk to my therapist about it. [/quote]
