Scared of flying

Posted by Nuri (33 days ago)

I am very scared when I am on board of an airplane. It becomes worse every time I need to travel. I start panicking long before the planned flight, and when I actually inside the airplane I am just freaked out. Most of all, I hate turbulence, even the slightest one. I keep on looking at my watch every 3-5 minutes, counting down the time left till the landing. It all started 3 years ago when the airplane I was in was doing lots of circles above HK due to T8...

I tried drinking (though I don't usually drink at all), I tried mild sedatives and sleeping pills. Nothing works for me. I feel demoralized because I cannot find a solution. Is something wrong with my psychic? Does anyone experience similar feelings? Is there anything that can help permanently? Please help... Xmas is coming and my family and I will need to travel for 8 hours!

Irrational fear
----------------


Hello Nuri,

I am sorry............there is really nothing worse than irrational fear,usually inspite of everybody telling you that is silly.

I suggest you look at TFT thought field therapy or now its called EMT emotional freedon technique.

It really is very simple to follow and provided you set this as a "task" it needs comitment.
Down load it by looking under Roger Calahan,usually takes a few sessions,the strangest one I've had was a heli pilot.

You are simply manifesting fear by re living the moments,this method,technique call it what you will focusses and confronts and it works.

Good luck,
