Default Pteromerhanophobia

Not the normal type

the kind that isn't rational, one can rationalize, or mitigate

we all have some level of these, arachnophobia, cynophobia, mysophobia

it's simply how to deal with it that's my lot

last time i flew, the friend that talked me into it got me so snotty drunk, he had to lead me by the nose to my seat

now what? bite stick? lithium? open bar?

Take the train. I'm not afraid of flying, I just hate doing it.

I've never flown but besides the hassle, I don't see what's wrong with it.

Medication

While you should always follow your doctor’s advice with medications, we are generally not in favor of using drugs.

They may produce a short-term improvement by masking symptoms, but never tackle the core problem of the overwhelming automatic fear response to flying.



I'm outta here tommorrow, southwest to Ocala, rescue mission with two friends

no drugs, that's not me, just seated bettween the two yammering .....
