There's no such thing as 'too many'. It's 'as many as you need'. Who's counting, anyway?

I wouldn't hesitate to go if you need to. And that is really the only criterion.

d69j, you are NOT a baby!! No way. We have an illness which tells us we cannot trust our feelings and/or they should be disregarded/downplayed. That doesn't mean it's true. That kind of thinking is a symptom.

I'm so sorry that you feel a trip is imminent - I really hope it will not come to that and you can find a way to get some relief soon.
