Not having my passport gives me anxiety. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Here hoping for some commiseration, if I'm being honest. Looks like travel communities on Lemmy are pretty quiet. Guess we'll see!

Yesterday I mailed in my passport for renewal. It expires in a month so it's effectively useless right now anyway, so it shouldn't matter. But I feel trapped in a way I didn't before yesterday. I hate it.

I only have a couple of friends that have traveled internationally and both of theirs have lapsed and they both have the means to travel so I'm inferring from that that it doesn't bother them in the same way.

Anyone else that does/would feel the same way?

Idk how it is now, but if you’re in US you can easily drive into Mexico. Getting back is the hard part. You used to be able to get back in without a passport but it was a long process.
