@cindyvag Have you had a bad experience flying before? Is that the root cause of the anxiety? Do you have a set of wireless headphones or some way to distract yourself with soothing music, or perhaps an audio book, or a hypnosis tape to help you relax. Any of these might help you cope with your anxiety. Be sure your husband is aware of your anxiety issues and enlist his help. Perhaps your recent ICU stay and the reason behind it is the root cause. Wear a face mask to reduce exposure to germs, ask for early boarding to give yourself time to settle in. Put your mindset that you deserve to have this time with husband and family. We care here, and want to help.

Hi Ginger, the icu and being in a closed area seems to be what is getting me anxious. Scared after icu and being ventilated that i wont breathe sounds so stupid but i have not stopped thinkingabout this flight.but i am gonna do what you say with music and yes hubby very supportive so he already said he would keep me busy
