go skydiving
You may not be able to overcome your fear but maybe you can take something so that you can sleep through the flight.
Don’t look down look straight and fall asleep. Keep a vomit bag at your side drink lots of water and sit at the very front.
Fly
take up sky-diving. XD face your fear!
masturbate a lot
Take a long trip on a Greyhound bus. It got me over my fear of flying.
pourquoi????????
Stay up the night before, & get on the plane real tired.
When you take off you will pass out & sleep the whole way.
PS. People have to fly everyday. It’s no big thing.
GET DRUNK!!!!!!!
okay i had to get anxiety pills because i was scared of flying but it wasnt that bad yet the pills helped
what r u scared of?
if its like the plane falling the chances of that are very slim and its more dangerous to drive than to fly( just to let you know)
the only way to overcome a fear is to do it
thjere are pills for that. i dont know what they are called but my friends mom is extremly scared to fly on a airplane and she takes these pills.
to overcome your fear you have to confront it,
you have to fly and not worry about what happens
make a tape and listen to it wall you sleep and make it say im not afrade of flying but the best way is to just fly somwere and then you’ll see its not that bad
just doing it, i was super afraid to fly, and then i had a 15 hour plane ride to london, im so glad i did it and now its not so bad.
Just look at the facts about air travel. You are way more likely to win the lotto a few times over than to die in an air crash. Also, driving is much much more dangerous.
I have to remind myself of these things whenever I fly, because i’m terrified of heights and I hate flying. But knowing the facts helps a lot.
when you get onto the aeroplane, sit away from the window and relax, think about what is on the other end of the flight (when you get to your destination.) Think of walking down the beach, relaxing and the pool side etc. Try sleeping to.
You’re just going have to fly! Have you ever flown before, its actually a lot of fun. Just take a tylenol PM and sleep through the whole flight!
just do it and fly!
Don’t worry you will be fine. If you are that scared let the flight attendants know and they will do everything they can to help you. I beat my fear by travelling alone. It worked i now fly on a regular basis.
Since i don’t have fears of flying, nothing. If i were u, though, i would actually get on the plane to try to overcome my fear. With all the BS happening in planes today, i don’t blame you for being scared, however, flying with your family and not alone, should be of much help to u
Many people are afraid to fly – you’re not alone. In fact, there are websites out there that help you overcome the fear of flying that are free.
Remember that the pilots are trained and they want to come home to their families just like you, so they’ll do whatever they can to make your flight a very safe one. Also, let your family know that you’re afraid – they can help you through it.
I don’t like to fly at all – and I used to fly all of the time. Once I had kids I developed this fear. Just remember, you’re safer in a plane than you are in a car!
Here are some websites that might help you: and . The first one is better than the second and he goes step by step of what to expect at the airport and on your first flight.
Have fun on spring break!
just dont think about it , think people are expecting me to be afraid on this flight, so think of not showing fear be strong, beacause fear is a sign of weakness, breathe in breathe out and relax you know whats going to happen the plane is going to speed up real fast until it gets enough momentum to lift itself up and once it begans going up your stomach will have a tingling sensation , if you look out the window you might get nauscious on the way up so i suggest you dont , just lay your head back , and remember its smooth flying after that , and the landing is just the opposite of going up , oh yeah and if there is turbulance , just know thats all it is prob. just strong winds.
I reccommend you listen to the radio , or watch t.v. /movies while on the flight to make it more comforting , and drink and eat the free snacks , to comfort your stomach if you feel naucious… or if you’re 21 and older buy a couple shots to help numb your fear… other than that have a safe trip , oh yeah and one very important detail that I cant leave out , if you see a nervous middle-eastern (sweating bullets) with a thick mustache and beard , and or a turbin , i suggest you dont get on the plane , or get off if already on , or pray the whole flight if its too late…. thats all i can say
this is a little story of meee:]
okay i was 12, just turned 12, and my family was going to orlando florida.i was tempted not to go b/c we had to fly. and since 9/11 i was always afraid that it would happen again. anyways, i got on the plane all shaky and nervous and i just held my moms hand as we took off and now, IM THE ONE THAT LOVES TO FLY! im going in a month and i am sooo excited!i love airplanes and flying and its just a total rush.
