This is very good advise, Seth. We recently got back from a trip to Philly (ran into the guy who runs the Urban Gentry YouTube channel) visiting family. It took a 36hrs just to mentally adjust & that's just the other side of the country. Flying for nearly a day to the middle of no where... I'd want to stay more than a few days. Leaving the watches behind is also a solid choice for someone who is anxious/may have an anxiety disorder. (not an MD, just reading between your lines). You'll have your phone if you need it, but I have found that sometimes looking at a watch to tell the time makes me think about my schedule too much. That can be detrimental on a relaxing vacation. If you feel the need for one, maybe find a $25 Timex in a gift shop that's colorful & brings you joy. It'll be a fun memory whenever you wear it back home.
