    Hiya Matt,

    I have to agree with meg on this one. Keep on doing it and it will get easier. It's when you start to avoid doing things they become a very BIG problem

    Yeah I've been though the cycle a bit lucky... from virtuallly not being able to go out to doing pretty much everything I need and want to do! Avoidance is deffo a no no

    Its just these last few things train plane etc that I'm having a problem with and I have no real need to use either! I'm not avoiding them as such other than not getting round to setting up a test for myself I suppose...

    You could try the flying with confidence course - I did that to get me back on a plane after 5 years of not flying.

    I've looked at those nic! I dunno I just feel like I'm less likely to get wierd if I an see the dude controlling the plane or actually controll it myself!

    How many people are there on one of those courses?? are there eneough people on here that would like to do it?? Maybe we could take over a course or something...

    Just an idea!!

    I get it cheap cos I work for an airline. It costs about £150 I think!

    There are more helpers than pancikers so you will be ok - oh and a doctor too!

    Something to think about anyway!

    I have a fear of flying too. Although I would rather not get on the airplane, I force myself to because of the fact that I'll get to enjoy my trip a little more and see my family. I just flew yesterday and made it (with the help of medication). Do any of you have some suggestions for fear of flying resources?

    Thanks,

    Chris
