Flying away

[Lindsey14]

Could my anxiety be more intense lately due to me leaving on a flight to TN and leaving my family here?

Hi Lindsey, definitely. Flying itself can be challenging if you have anxiety. In addition, you won't have your loved ones next to you for support or someone to talk with. I get uneasy before flying but always make it through after a half hour or so in the air. I usually make some friends sitting next to me and play cards or just talk about our lives. It helps to pass the time and forget about my nerves. Another tactic I use is music or visualizing in my mind all the fun, new experiences I'm going to have during the trip/vacation. Enjoy your travels to TN!
