Hi Diva!
I am reading the forum through and have noticed your nickname, you're very active and helpful. It's really nice :):):)
I have heard of this program but as I am new here I haven't found it yet. But I hope I will find it :D
Well i do not have any advice on how to deal with airplanes but i still wanted to say hi and welcome to the forums. I also wanted to let you know the CBT progra here is really great and has sections on how to challenge your anxious thoughts that is very good, You could give it a try, it might help!
Anyway, again, welcome!

Hello everyone!
I am new here. Although I am 24, I've been suffering from panic attacks and depression for about last 5 years. Lately I seem to get well but there is still one big problem for me. I am really afraid of flying by plane. In the past I had panic attacks in public transport, my hands started to tingle (?) and I felt very bad. Usually I got off. I have always tried to avoid flying by plane but how long can it last? I am ashamed to confess that I have flied only once. I've missed many chances to travel in my life :(. I want to live a normal life! I've already bought a plane ticket for the shortest distance (have to fly only for 1 hour) to struggle with this problem. But I cannot relax before a flight. All the time I am thinking of planes, about how I will feel there in a plane, I even visualise myself having a panic attack in a plane. I am visiting a psychoterapist and taking medicine (Cipralex). I will really appreciate people with similar problems to share their advice on how they are coping with this problem! Thanks!!!
