Fear of flying?!
Question:
Fear of flying?
I am terrified to fly. I use to fly when I was younger and I loved it but now i've grown this fear to fly. The thing is, Im not worried about crashing. I dont even think twice about that. Im get panicy because I feel like I cant get off the plane. Im scared that if I try to fly I will freak out and want off and I wont be able to get off. I have a business convention in three months, this fear of flying could make or break my career. I would rather die than get on a plane. Also, to top it off I have severe OCD and panic disorder. Im afraid to travel further than about thirty min. away from my home even in a car. I'm going to try to work on that in this 3 months. I want to go more than anything i just really cant see myself doing it. I have so many things that will set off a panic attack i cant even begin to list them. Im only 22 and I NEED this opportunity. My job requires travel. HELP!!
Answers:
You could take something like xanax for a short term fix but long term you need to try to bring your train of thought around so would therefore need to see a counsillor or therapist...
You are still young so kick it in the ar*e now, before it takes over your life.
