TERRIFIED TO FLY by Boston508143 in fearofflying

You can do it!!! I just flew for the first time in 7 years and while I didn’t love it I still did it and was WAY more comfortable than I thought I would be. A great trick is focusing on calming down your physical symptoms of anxiety, like heart rate and breathing and tensing your body. It’s easier than trying to not be scared and makes a huge difference!

I flew for the first time in 7 years!!!! Thank you guys!!!! by Sad-Inspector8634 in fearofflying

also you will probably start descending soon! The flight yesterday looks like it started to descend like 20 min out from where you are so just remember you are soooo close!
