I’d say you should worry about it all you want beforehand, but make sure to go, and make sure to leave those thoughts at the entrance. These thoughts/emotions are there for a reason, but IMHO they are more useful for preparation, not for the event itself.
I sometimes even mime putting such intrusive thoughts into an imaginary box, locking it with a key, and setting it down somewhere, or tossing it over my shoulder. This sort of ritual helps me to really cement my intention of leaving something that I no longer need behind.
Also, having you wife with should be a great help, for obvious reasons. But really you are an adult, as long as you don’t show up in a sailor moon costume I doubt if anyone will be paying much attention to you at all.







I think it is hard for outsiders to comprehend how ignorant many US-Citizens really are. Trump himself doesn’t understand the three branches of the federal government, a basic and extremely important part of the system. Many, many others share this level of ignorance, it’s all part of the super-rich’s plan to gain more and more control, which has been slowing gaining ground for decades.
