Going on vacation

AutisticBuddy

Is this something you do? Does it affect your anxiety?

I like going on vacation but only if it's my sort of vacation. I haven't vacationed since living in the UK but back home I vacationed in our RV and also went camping with a tent. I found both fun and interesting experiences.

I've also been to hotels and log cabins but they were less fun as there was generally a lot of people also staying which I found difficult to cope with and did have meltdowns a couple of times.

Personally going on a vacation in the RV with my family is my go to vacation. Perfect for me. Got the comfort and privacy of the RV and if didn't like where we were we could literally just go somewhere else.

I also enjoyed tenting as it was a different life for a short time. Fishing with my Grandpa so we could eat. And telling stories round the campfire.

I did enjoy that.

I'm not sure where good vacation spots are round the UK? I looked online but a lot of the places it suggests are like London but that's meant to be a busy place.

  • I like to go away for a few days on a well-planned holiday. I'm going to the Yorkshire coast next weekend and that'll be good, because I'll be with family members who also like to plan ahead. I don't like being away from home for too long either because I like to have my own things and my usual routine, so I'm never on holiday for more than a week.

    London is busy, yes, though again I don't mind going if I have a solid plan. I went for a long weekend with some friends a few years ago, and we planned the whole thing in advance so we knew exactly where we'd go each day and for how long. I couldn't go to London without a plan for what I'm doing and a backup for if I get overwhelmed.
