Depression and anxiety

[james'mommy]

I do not fly anymore but when I did I would take Zanax. I tried it first before I took it the morning of the flight just to make sure I was ok.

How does everyone with anxiety feel about flying???? I am always afraid I will have a panic attack on the plane so I just don't do it anymore

I have anxiety and have panic attacks if there are too many people around. I've had a couple on an airplane. I just make sure to have my meds under the seat (not in the overhead). Also I get up and walk to the bathroom. The bathroom maybe small but at least there are no other people in there with me.

See, for me with my OCD, an airplane bathroom is one of the worst places in the world!

I take Xanax. Full blown panic attack it works in about 15 minutes. I have blue ones. Not sure what the dosage is.

OK, how does everyone do with traveling to WDW?? Staying at a resort, and dealing with crowds, in lines, getting food...

With meds, do you all deal pretty well with these kinds of things???
