tips to fight flight anxiety
The truth is that a lot of flying anxiety is projecting and misplacing fears. Your worries are probably the inconveniences and discomforts that disrupt your personal 'control'
Science shows that fighting feelings of anxiety can actually inflate those feelings. You actually work yourself into a much more anxious state by battling yourself. Accept these feelings and say something affirmative to yourself
If you’re feeling anxious, you’re probably planning to have a cocktail before the plane takes off. Do not get plastered on an international flight. Avoid caffeine and coffee if you’re prone to panic attack.
