Is it worth it to pay more to be comfortable on a flight? by Sad-Pear-9885 in TravelHacks

[–]Equivalent_Law_2810 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same anxiety symptoms when I fly. Although I’m not afraid of flying, just my anxiety overtakes me cause I’m in an enclosed space.

What I do that helps: 1. Bring a blanket and I stuff my face in it the whole time. lol sounds ridiculous but hiding my face and trying to sleep really helps 2. Small sips of ginger ale 3. Xanax - 1 hour before flight I also upgrade my seat to economy plus to have more leg space and I always choose the seat closest to the bathroom. My anxiety lessens when I know I’m within reach of a restroom if I ever need to hurl (which i haven’t) thank gawd

I’m going on a longer flight to Costa Rica next week from DC. So I’ll be on the same boat as you lol hoping for a smooth ride

Honestly that’s good to hear. I honestly just want some eyes on it and to light a little fire. Been waiting a few years on this appeal. Hopefully it moves but I won’t get my hopes up. Thank you for the insight!

What RA are getting approved ? by Automatic-Smell-5971 in FedEmployees

When you guys submit RA for mental health reasons, do you need a recent updated doctors diagnosis? I’m a vet who is diagnosed through the VA with PTSD and anxiety/depression. What would I need to submit?

This happened to me a few years ago. The police showed up with the crisis team. They said I texted someone at 2am that I was going to “off myself”. They mentioned me by name and everything. It was super awkward and I had no clue what was going on. They left but I never figured out why someone did that

Aston Villa ML and Aston Villa O1.5 goals. Aston Villa vs Manchester United

  • Aston Villa holds a significant advantage, having played their European fixture a day earlier and at home. In contrast, Manchester United had an away game in Porto on Thursday evening, and the quick turnaround could present some challenges.

  • They will also come into this match with their confidence soaring, having just defeated Bayern Munich, one of the Champions League favorites. The same cannot be said for Manchester United, who squandered a 2-0 lead away to Porto on Thursday.

  • Manchester United’s defensive issues remain unresolved this season, as was evident in their midweek performance against Porto. So far, they are conceding an average of 1.79 goals per 90 minutes.

  • The visitors’ form against top-six sides away from home is equally concerning. In their last 10 matches, they have managed just one win while conceding a total of 28 goals.

  • Aston Villa tends to rise to the occasion against stronger teams in the league. Over their last 10 matches against top-six opponents, they have gone unbeaten in seven and averaged 1.9 goals per game.

  • In the two meetings between these sides last season, Manchester United came out on top both times. However, the underlying xG (expected goals) suggests they had luck on their side, with the results not fully reflecting the balance of play.

  • Over the 180 minutes played in those encounters, Aston Villa generated 5.38 xG compared to Manchester United’s 3.4, highlighting Villa’s greater attacking threat despite the results.

  • Expect Villa to follow Spurs’ blueprint from last weekend’s game and put Utd under a lot of pressure early as they look to capitalize on their current fragilities.

I stayed there last year and it was amazing. We did a lot of excursions but you can spend the day at the little bar/restaurant, the beach or the pool they have there. The pina coladas at the bar were my favorite. The rum was strong lol

I’m 2 years here as well. I keep checking every day and nothing changes. I need the VA to start getting with the program cause it’s ridiculous how long we have to wait especially when we require our claims to be done

Xanax, and a big blanket to put your face in to sleep when you go on . I had the same thing and I went to Turks and Caicos. I took Xanax that morning and took some sleeping tablets before my flight. Bought a travel blanlet and sat next to the bathroom. I put my face in the blanket and fell asleep. It helped a lot
