Hi

Try Yoga. No not on the plane silly :-d. I'm talking about breath control - "Focus on the breath". It works, no really. I took a beginners course and I found the most useful part was relaxation through breathing techniques.

Xanax

Ativan, but do not take any of these if you are tempted to drink alcohol

Did any of you notice that this is a TWO YEAR OLD post?

((I))

MichelleY,
I took Bonine for sea sickness once and it relaxed me and put me to sleep. I didn't even need the cocktail.

Let me repeat my post from two years ago when this thread started:

XANAX baby, XANAX!!!!!

Ira - Did anyone notice that the person that revived this thread just joined Fodor's (only post)to recommend a product?

LOL - no, I actually did NOT notice it was 2 years old. I jusf feel for anyone who hates to fly like I do - and know my world is a better place on a plane with Xanax as well as those traveling around me ;-)

Wow! The post I was talking about has been removed. That was fast.

Anxiety problem? Business Class.

Yeah, business class for anxiety, absolutely. Sometimes on those transatlantic flights when I use the restroom I can see through the little curtain into coach and my heart starts racing just looking at the chaos back there. What a nightmare. The last coach flight I had was in 2002, 11 hours to Germany and I thought I was going to die (I'm pretty tall, think knees practically in my chest).

An even bigger nightmare is that when I don't work at this job anymore, business class goes bye-bye. The jokes on me because it wont last forever and now I'm RUINED! Back to Xanax LOL.
