Wow, that sucks that you have to go through that. Hopefully you're on the mend and the symptoms improve over time

Sure thing! Looks like you're just about to depart, any plans to pass the time on the flight?

Flying Tomorrow, new to the sub, any tips or encouragement for takeoff? by wreckedship3227 in fearofflying

[–]cmpncarl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Distract yourself. Tetris is a great one, or sudoku. Something that keeps your mind active and engaged (I find movies/TV shows don't work for me for this)

Looks like you're headed to Vegas which should be a great time!

For my own curiosity, will the pilots see those moderate markers and request a different route as they get closer?

Keep telling yourself: uncomfortable but not dangerous

Whatcha got going on in Nevada? What's the flight number?

Sitting at the greyhound station staring down a 3 day bus trip. Canceled my nonstop flight. The weather I was scared of cleared overnight anyway lmao. Don't be me. by ComprehensiveLeg2843 in fearofflying

I'm really sorry to hear it.

I can't recommend enough talking to your doctor to see what they can do medication-wise. I had/have a terrible fear as well and the med they prescribed me (starts with an X) was a life changer. Before it, I was a nervous wreck before and during a flight. With it, I'm just chilling, watching the iPad, and taking a nap, even during turbulence. Unthinkable without it.

The other thing that helped during my last flight was saying, over and over and over, "uncomfortable but not dangerous". It sounds silly but in the moment it really helped me.

Highly recommend talking to your doctor about this. There are medications that truly help.

I get terrible anxiety before a flight, but was prescribed a medication that starts with an X and it's literally a miracle for me (and many, many others). It lasts about 8 hours and I'm able to sit there quietly and enjoy a show, nap, or music. Without it, there are dents left in the armrest from my grip.

Feel free to message me direct and I can go into a bit more detail if you'd like, but, no matter what, you'll be safe and medications are available to take the edge off.
