Holiday Dread! Help!!!!

I am going on holiday in 8 days, I know I am lucky to be having a holiday, but I am in a major state of panic, about it.  


My daughter has noticed she is 22 years, not my husband.  I am in a panic state all day, and find it hard to relax at night in bed.


I'm shaking, stressed, paniced, anxious, practically any word you can name to describe anxieity I seem to have it.


I am doing my relaxation tape, I cant see my therapist until after the holiday, thats just the way it works in the UK, unless you can afford to go private which I cannot.


I really need help to get through these waiting days particularly, please help, any suggestions would be welcome.!!!

    Hi. This is my first post. I'm here because my husband is an addict and it's having a negative impact on our marriage and my emotional and mental well being. He's an alcoholic who is also addicted to pornography and video gaming. He spends every moment that he isn't at work or sleeping drinking beer, playing his video games, and looking at porn. He's completely pushed me out of his life. We don't...
