Agreed, I have a pretty horrible panic attack that starts with the takeoff roll, eases a bit when we're in the air and will return with any turbulence. Alcohol helps this significantly.
- 300bps 5y agoI’m glad that helps but just wanted to point out that there are ways of dealing with anxiety and panic attacks that don’t involve self-medicating. Someone on HN many years ago recommended the book Learned Optimism saying that it changed their life. It did the same for me.
