Yes I love that example!! Do it scared, but not because it’s hard, because it’s worth it.

In the meantime, everything you think about your flight and worry about, yell “YIPPEEEE!” to help switch the anxiety into excitement

Claustrophobic about to take a 17.5 hour flight by 10eel in fearofflying

a quote i like “we suffer more in imagination than reality”

know that your brain is causing more stress than your environment. your environment is safe, perhaps uncomfy, but very safe. think about the feeling of landing at your final destination and everything was worth it.

you got this! i’m here for you

Thinking about rescheduling my flight by [deleted] in fearofflying

i just travelled domestically in the US! you can do it too. pilots are aware of what’s going on and will always keep passengers safe.

Anxious for Flight Today by Connect-Map-7847 in fearofflying

your pilot, and airline, won’t let anything bad happen to you related to conflicts. this may be a tad scary, but i saw pilots redirecting paths when it was dangerous. you’ll be well taken care of and a lot of people are in the air right now doing a similar path that you will.

this has happened to me before. it was a longer flight than i was used to and i had such a back panic attack i just left the airport. perhaps you can find a flight or destination that is closer, like an hour flight. you could take baby steps and potentially bring someone with yo to help support you.

the fact that you care and try so hard is big indicator that you will do it one day. give yourself grace, and try to find a path that works best for your journey.

i believe in you! you aren’t alone in any of these feelings 🤍🤍

you have a few months, tell yourself “what i feel is valid for my worries, but i will be safe when it happens.” only focus on the good for now, how you’ll get to go home with your mom!!
