It's the best I can do, but it means I can get on a plane without panic attacks and weeping and gnashing of teeth. (I used to literally have heart palpitations for months ahead of any scheduled flight.)
I have heart palpitations too, oh boy.
A friend with a similar phobia recommended I talk to my doctor about this phobia a few years ago, and apparently there are a LOT of people who get a little happy pill to enable them to fly without panic and fear. Who knew?

I actually got delayed a long time before my first plane ride. I was so irritated having to actually board the flight late that I skipped over the fear. Without squirt.
