I have two major fears, spiders and flying. I had no problem as a child flying but as I got older I became terrified of planes. The strange thing is
once I am in the air I am fine, it's the landing and taking off that puts me in a panic. I literally have to take something so I don't pass out. As
soon as I get in an airport I start sweating and the closer to the gate I get the worse it gets. The last time I flew I cried getting on the plane,
the ticket guy was a jerk and didn't make me feel any better, he actually made me feel like crap. I have to get over my fear soon though, my bf is
getting ready to be in Italy for a while and if I want to see him I have to fly. I guess I will have to get over my fear before November and it scares
the crap out of me. I am not looking forward to flying over the ocean at all.
I am not a fan of pills but my doctor gave me 4 xanax to help me relax, they worked and this time I will need something stronger or a bottle of
jager
I just want to sleep through it. I don't want to be awake. Having my ipod helps too. I just listen to music that makes me feel better, it
would be great if I could access ATS while I am flying, then I can mutter the time away!
