maidoan97 743 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I had no problem with flying when I was younger, but ever since I got on roller coasters, I started to have fear of flying. I become terrified and my heart beats really fast whenever the plane takes off. It got even worse because of the plane crashes that happened in 2014 and 2015. I will go to Germany to visit my father next Thursday. I keep thinking that I won't be able to survive the long 10-hour flight. I can't ignore the thought that I may die since the possibility does exist. The thought that I have no control over it terrifies me too. What if the pilot is a psycho just like the co-pilot of the Germanwings crash? Could you guys give me some advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burenbayar 105 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 scare from flying is useless ... you can't do anything about it ... if your plane falling from 10000 m above that means there is no hacking chance will left ... so just leave it to your destiny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damaged Lady 142 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I used to be a little scared of flying too...I haven't been in a plane since those plane crashes (not for that reason, just coincidence). All the above tips are great! Things I'd say: - (this has already been said) Think of your bias groups and how they go in planes all the time. They're clearly fine and really awesome people. - most planes have screens or devices you can use, which are different depending on what class you travel in, but I travelled in economy class (lowest) and they had them there. Make sure to preoccupy yourself playing games and listening to music on them, it helps a lot. I'm pretty sure they didn't have k-pop on the plane I went on, but I wasn't into k-pop then, so who knows? - with the theme of above point, just keep distracted. Even if you just focus on how much you like (or dislike) the food, it's great to have something to focus on that's not to do with danger. - (i'm assuming you really do want to go to the place you're going to here) before getting on the plane, and on the plane, just think of how much you want to get where you are going. - I'm not usually optimistic at all, but if you're worrying throughout the whole flight, you will enjoy it so much less than if you don't worry at all. I know it's hard, but it will be so much more enjoyable if you maintain a positive mentality. - You'll be fine! - sorry for the pep talk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayellaz 1,221 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 don't get the window seat? and since it's a 10 hour flight, you should catch some sleep or bring a book to read onboard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stupid Jellyfish 1,913 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 A lot of people take anxiety medication for flights. You won't become addicted as long as you're using it only for flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
