Hi Everyone,
I really hope you can help me...
I am very scared about flying. Every sound and noise, I can't look out of the window, eyes shut during take off and landing etc.
It wasn't a problem previously, but I had a bad flight a couple of years ago and ever since I've had nightmares and feeling sick just thinking about the flight...
Next week I'm off on a stag trip. I can't get out of it as it's my stag trip :ohmy:. The flight's only 2 hours long, and we're away for three nights.
I've been given 10 2mg Diazepam pills and told to take 1 or 2 before the flight and the same for the return.
My problem is obviously that it's a stag trip and there will be beer involved. I'm aware that there's to be no drinking on the plane as the pills won't react well.
Does anyone have an opinion as to how soon after we land I can join the rest of the boys with beer?
Also, if I had a couple of weak shandies before the flight - would this be a problem.
I'm not trying to sound like a lager lout, but obviously a stag trip "with the lads" will involve beers and I'm worries that taking the pills will mean I can't actually join in any of the frivolities for my own stag trip, and perhaps I should attempt to brave the flight with no pills?
Thanks for your help,
Stephen
