To me it's more of a "claustrophobia" and "lack of any control over the situation" issue.

Same here, for me it's more "claustrophobia" and "lack of any control over the situation". I get anxiety attacks, I panic really bad.

I have to take Ativan for anxiety, that seems to help a bit. Even days before I know I have to flight I feel very anxious.

Flying causes a lot stress in my life, but I have no choice, I have to do it.
