Hi,

occationally I will sense some anxiety ... how do I fix this?


It sounds like there is nothing for you to fix.

It sounds like the mild anxiety doesn't prevent
you from getting out and enjoying the outdoors by yourself.
It also sounds like you are properly prepared for being
alone.

As far as the mini-panic attack when you realized that
you hadn't told anyone where you were going, maybe
it will help you remember to tell someone before
future solo outtings.

p.s. Personally I have always keep a stuffed animal
or two around when I'll be "away" from civilazation,
or when DH is out of town.

Oh, and depending on your religous beliefs, you
might never be completely alone.
