I love how people always razz others about their fears and/or phobias.
We all have one...and most people suffer from stage fright.
That is one I do not have, I can get up in front of any audience and talk my head off.
I suffer from anxiety disorder and have over the last 5 years developed phobias I have never had before but I face them on a daily basis.
You can call me pussy all day long but I know damn well I'm a helluva lot braver than most people here because of that fact.
How many people here can say they face a phobia or fear daily?
Not too many.
Regardless of how trivial you think others fears/phobias are they are just as valid as yours...because in the end they are all irrational.
So marcus...do like the one gentleman said...go talk to a doctor and explain your fears.
Pick up something from the benzodiazepam family..e.g. valium, xanax, klonopin etc.
Depending upon how such things affect you I suggest you take it about 15-20 minutes prior to boarding the plane.
If things like valium kick your ass pretty good then wait until you're getting onto the plane.
Take some relaxing (and I stress RELAXING) music with you and a portable cd player and some headphones...kick back and enjoy the ride.
Other than that there's not much else you can do...anxiety disorder brings upon this feeling of impending death for most sufferers and I have had to remind myself time and time again that if it's my time to go it doesn't matter if I'm sitting 30,000 feet in the air on a plane or taking a dump on my toilet.
