How to Overcome Fear of Flying

The human body has many different phobias. Some of them are often heard of in life, but some phobias have never even been heard of, which makes people feel incredible. One of these phobias is called fear of flying. Patients with this condition are often very afraid of flying and would even rather take a train than a plane. How should this situation be solved? Let’s learn about it together.

Use assistive software

Some mobile phone apps can help people focus on their breathing. Breathe2Relax, RelaxLite:StressRelief, and the Mayo Clinic Anxiety Coach app are all good options. There are about 200 such software for you to choose from, all of which can effectively help you focus on your breathing and relieve your tension.

Remember that panic will pass

It is very important to realize that panics will pass. Panic attacks last no more than a few minutes and then slowly subside, so you won't be in panic mode for the entire trip. If you're worried that you might lose control or be overwhelmed by panic, remember that even the most severe panic attack is only a temporary torment that you will overcome.

Identify the fear factor

Some people worry about having a flight accident, but more people worry about having a panic attack on the plane. So what people are afraid of is fear itself. What is a catastrophe? What am I really worried about happening? What am I complicating? If I panic, what am I worried about happening? Answering these questions before you get on a plane can help you ease your nerves.

Focus on the positive

Nervous flyers should avoid reading or listening to stories about airplane accidents. Many nervous flyers focus so much on the small details of a negative story that they ignore other positive information. Rather than researching safety statistics, nervous flyers should remember that flying is the safest mode of transportation when traveling.

Learn emotional release techniques

Practitioners of the emotional freedom technique tap their own acupuncture points to release tension. This method of combating tension is simple and easy to learn.

Know when to seek professional help

If an anti-anxiety agent would actually make you comfortable flying, then you can bring some with you. Some nervous flyers take benzodiazepines to combat flying panic. Opportunities to take medication include insomnia, nausea due to nervousness, and any inconvenience to yourself or other passengers. But you must consult a doctor or psychologist.
