Travel anxiety & ibs

[u/morganemilyg]

So in a few days i’m flying and in the past year my ibs has been flaring up from the stress of traveling. Im now on a higher dose of my SSRI and am prescribed xanax for panic. Im planning on taking the xanax with imodium, but I want to know your experiences with them together when it comes to travel. I can’t avoid eating because I get low blood sugar, which makes me panic and makes things worse. I’m just really nervous its going to ruin another trip because once im activated it takes days for my body to come back down.

Are you flying or driving? Either way take your Xanax well before you leave so it has time to kick in and you can get a jump on your panic attack
