Take puzzles to concentrate your mind, i know it might be hard to concentrate but stick with it you will.
Just remember that most of the panic symptoms are just sensations, these cannot hurt you, they just feel very unpleasant, all the feelings we get when we panic are natural responses to abnormal situations! Hope these thoughts help you a little they did for me!

Good luck with your flight, im flying in 3weeks time too and i suffer with agrophobia!!
Please do let me know how you get on.

Hello, yes take anything which will distract your thoughts from how you are feeling inside, I also get tightness of the chest, which is not nice but know that it is anxiety and it will be ok. Just keep your mind occupied. Take care Julie xx:)

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO DIE..its unpleasant but will pass. Get a paper bag NOW and re-breathe. Also lavender, bach rescue remedy...you will be ok. Your heart is responding to your anxiety, and believe me...an ex-nurse...your heart can deal with much faster beats than that...I promise..x:hugs:
