Default Much worse after plane travel and stuck in a stressful situation... help?

Hey folks,

So I've mostly been doing better. I'm able to complete school work again, and thanks to a new glasses prescription, I can read without issue. I've been slowly reintroducing things into my life, and taking it very very easy.

Then I flew cross-country today, and I'm terrified that I'm going to relapse.

I had headaches today for the first time in a few weeks! I'm starting to get dizzy again, too, and that hasn't happened in over a month.

First the whole process was long and terrible (woke up at 4am, arrived at 9pm), but now I realized I made a terrible mistake coming here in the first place. I am stuck in a very stressful position, staying with my mother. She lives in a loud apartment surrounded by yappy dogs. My father (her divorced husband) is also coming up to see me and I know the house will break out in fighting as it always does.

I've been here for four hours and I want to take an overnight flight back. I just want to get back to my old routine, but I can't hurt my mother's feelings. I am an only child (bear in mind that I am an adult now) and she got a christmas tree, made up the house, etc etc just for me.

Do you think I should leave from the stress? I made so much progress and now I"m afraid of ruining it.
