Anxiety

I'm at the airport waiting to board my flight and the anxiety I'm feeling is really intense. I'm just going to visit family out of state for a long weekend, RAH is staying home. It's not like I have never flown before, in fact I fly at least once a year but thus anxiety is ridiculous. I used to be so strong and fearless , but that was before alcoholism entered my world.

I worry about everything! Will my flight be late, will I be stuck in a middle seat? Will there be no more overhead storage and have to check my carry on? Maybe I will catch frigging Ebola!!!!

I don't understand how I came to be this way. I know it's all so ridiculous but I can't stop just the same. Has anyone else experienced "alcoholism induced anxiety" (for lack of better terminology).
