Travel Insurance for Anxiety

Travelling with anxiety or an anxiety disorder may require a little more preparation, but for many people it doesn’t mean putting holiday plans on hold. Anxiety is a mental health condition characterised by persistent and excessive worry that can affect daily life. It affects approximately 8 million people in the UK. While symptoms can vary, many individuals successfully manage their condition through medication or ongoing care.

With the right preparation, medical guidance, and suitable travel insurance, plenty of people who have been diagnosed with anxiety (in whatever capacity), can capably and confidently travel abroad.

Travelling with a medical condition can take a little extra planning, but if your condition is stable and you’ve spoken with your doctor, there’s often no reason you can’t still enjoy a holiday abroad.

Travel insurance can help provide protection if your condition affects your trip:

• Emergency medical treatment and hospital care abroad
• Medical transport or repatriation back to the UK if required
• Cancellation cover if you are unable to travel due to your condition
• 24-hour medical assistance while you are abroad

Travel advice for people with anxiety, or an anxiety disorder

• Take medication at the same times you normally would at home
• Ensure you have enough medication for the duration of your trip
• Avoid triggers that may worsen symptoms where possible
• Allow time for rest if fatigue affects you

When completing the medical declaration, it's important to read the questions carefully, and declare this type of condition where required.
