While I'm generally happier with 'strict' planning*, with trips it's quite the opposite. If I know I need to leave to somewhere at certain point in future, I'll be anxious&reluctant to leave - usually getting hardly any sleep before the due time. Doesn't matter if it'd be trip to somewhere I'd like to visit or not, it just stresses me out. Part of that is my anxiety issues with traveling, other part probably BP or personality disorder related then. :p
Leaving with <2 hours warning only leaves the anxiety part, which is usually easily dealt with some anxiety medication for longer trips, or just suffering through it for short trips.
So knowing myself I'm very reluctant to have just a couple of days' trip, because traveling is the most stressful part, and I'd rather spend some time inbetween to recover from it..
(*well, some planning, at least)

Meds? Went feral. So far nothing has given me the equal of highs on daily basis.
