Thanks for the great post. I myself have suffered for years with flying but I never really knew that there was a specific anxiety condition related to flying. I thought I was probably just fearful of being up in the air and totally powerless and out of control if something were to happen. Perhaps I am just a bit of a control freak.

Lee, I'm really glad you were able to visit your parents! Congratulations on conquering your Aviophobia! The plugin I am using is still in beta, but it works well for me. It's called WP-Twitip ID and is from the same fellow who does the CommentLuv plugin.

I've been and come back and all was well. In the end I took about 4mg of diazepam which seemed to do the trick for most of the flight :) Lee’s last blog post..A Scam Email From Psychic Sara Freder

Not sure if you have already taken the flight but look in to Xanax or Niravam. I take a bottle of 15 Niravam whenever I fly and it has never failed me. I usually only need one before the flight but have taken two pills if needed.

Know I’m thinking about you and wish you every good result on your trip, before, during and after.

I’ve noticed that you have been absent from Twitter lately. I’m glad you’re keeping up your blog.

I’ve not been on Twitter, or hardly anywhere else online, as I am quite stressed about this, but determined to overcome it all the same.

Thank you for the update, Lee. I’ve been wondering how you were doing but didn’t want to pester you on Twitter.

And congratulations! The only way to face our fears is to confront them head on. My daughter held my hand all the way through a recent event I had to go to. No shame there, just love and understanding.

Have a good trip!
