Does anyone have any advise for how to pack for a week long trip without experiencing severe avoidance, panic, and anxiety ? In other words, I hate packing, totally freaks me out. I know, I'm :crazy: But seriously would welcome any suggestions, tia. BTW, is this considered off topic? :floorlaugh:
Based on past experience I would have to say my go-to plan for packing is this:
wait until I ABSOLUTELY HAVE to pack, pick out what I want to take, cut it in half, throw in suitcase. I always remind myself that if I truly NEED something while gone, I can just buy it. That helps me not to over pack. Truth - other than an occasional small item, I've never not been able to go the week with the limited amount I packed.
(so much easier than swearing and sweating through Ohare Airport with overweight bags!)
