Ask A Psychiatrist: Is My Constant Desire To Travel A Sign Of Mental Illness?

10 years ago

Last year in March many of you asked whether you were crazy for wanting to travel the world and how to cope with the mental pressure that can accompany undertaking a big life decision. From handling negative family members to wondering whether extended travel reflects some sort of commitment issue, many of us have questioned our sanity from time to time. Today, I’m happy to have back Dr. Jamey Levy who will be here for an additional hour to diagnose your wanderlust.

Dr. Jamey Levy is a psychiatrist at Bellevue Hospital in New York City, where he works as the unit chief on a general adult inpatient unit. He also has a private practice in NYC and is in training to become a psychoanalyst.

The chat is open today, July 22nd from 9:30pm-11:30pm US EST (1:30am-3:30am GMT). Scroll down or click here to join the conversation below.
