Mmm.... I wouldn't go trying to diagnose yourself.

This does sound like anxiety though. Fear can do dreadful things. You might want to look into getting some relaxation CDs and learn how to calm down the breathing if you have a panic attack.

Self-talk can help, know that your son is safe, the same thing that happened to you won't happen to him. Many of us tend to be over-protective of our children and that's ok.

Talk with your therapist before going on holiday and you can talk with us here too.
