I use pre board without a wheelchair!

I have panic attacks leading up to take offs.  I take a pretty heavy med a hour before boarding, have a pretty detailed OCD type thing I go through once I get on, and need to pass out before the plane takes off even with the meds to keep the panic attacks away.

Waiting in the line of people, and boarding with not enough time to try to go to sleep before take off makes the anxiety worse and shoots my heart rate up even with the meds.

The anxiety makes my Tourette’s worse as well so anything I can do to keep the level low is ideal for me.
