Anxious about visiting friend - help!

One of my friends from college has invited me to come and visit her for a weekend in August. We go to college in western New York state, and I'm at home for the summer in northwestern Pennsylvania, and she's in upstate New York. I haven't known her for very long, but we have become good friends fairly quickly. I have some problems with general anxiety, though, and I get nervous about absolutely everything - big or small. I really want to visit her and meet her family, but I'm really nervous about it! One of my problems is that I don't have a driver's license. I am going to take the test soon, but I don't know for sure that I'll pass it before August. I think I will, but you never know. My mom has kindly offered to drive me up to see my friend, but I feel badly that she has to take time off work, and I just feel silly that I can't drive myself up there.

What do you think I should do?? I need to let my friend know soon whether or not I can come. Thanks for reading, everyone!

Thanks for sharing with me about your medication. It helps to know that I'm not alone, but at the same time, I wish that no one else had to worry about anxiety or depression problems because I know that they can be so miserable. I hope that you are having a wonderful day!!

Thanks. I've found some of my medications to be too strong, too. It's hard to find the right dosage.

Thanks! I'll definitely keep you posted about what I decide to do.
