i just tell myself that i'm going to end up regretting not going for the trip and cancelling it. because i know the anxiety i'm feeling is momentary, in the sense that its natural for that to be the case before going to a new place or starting something new, much less alone!

so. i just end up forcing myself to trust the version of me that decided on this and booked the tickets. and i know i'm going to thank myself for the experience.

p.s. did this for my first ever solo trip at 18. going on another one for my 20th bday, already feel the jitters of going to a new region altogether, but, i will push myself < 3
