Hi,
I've been having this for a while now and it seems it doesn't want to go away.
Yes, I had a panic attack and I was rather anxious when I went on a trip by car or even worse, I went in a salt mine a few hundred meters below earth. I think my enclosed spaces phobia kicked in but I "managed" it, one way or another. I felt tensed and I wanted to go out as fast as possible, yet trying to keep cool cause I was with my friends. In the end, it was good..
But now, something combined will appear and I don't know how to keep my thoughts in leash: I will have to fly for 3 hours. Not scared of flying, even though I haven't flied before, but my fear and anxiety comes from sitting in a confined space without being able to leave at will... at several thousand meters in the air. So there's heights and confined spaces.. Not even there, but I'm scaring myself with this and I bet it won't help much...
Any tips on how can I get over these feelings? The trip is planned on 3-4 weeks from now. Thanks
