Fear of Flying
It’s a miracle..!!!
I still feel very lucky and have booked a holiday in Thailand later this year which is going to involve getting on a very small plane to travel from Bangkok to Koh Samui, which I am choosing to do over getting a train..
Anyway, here is my story....
Before I spoke to Gwen about my fear of flying I was getting very close to the point where I probably would have refused to get on a plane, even booking flights was getting increasingly difficult.
I used to be absolutely terrified and would cry at some point during each flight, whether simply while worrying in the gateroom, during take-off or occasionally in the air.
I was sceptical at first as I could not see how anything anyone said to me would change the way I felt. It was a huge shock when the night before my flight I sat down really thinking about the flight, and for once my heart rate did not increase with anxiety. I called Gwen as planned before I left, but there were no concerns to go through, I simply felt excited.
Still unsure and slightly worried I was amazed that when I got on the plane and sat in my seat I felt nothing but excitement, and even watched as we took off...something I was never able to do before.
Gwen – you are absolutely amazing and I am very lucky to have been able to talk my fear through with you, I can never thank you enough.
