The Fear of Flying isn't just about the Plane... It's about the People. 😨
For many fearful flyers, the anxiety isn't the takeoff—it's the horrifying thought of a public panic attack. The core fear is often shame and embarrassment:
"Everyone will be watching me."
"I'll affect my family's holiday."
"Where can I hide? I'm trapped."
My recent client, headed for Disney, was sleepless for months because of this specific worry. She felt guilty that her anxiety might ruin the trip for her kids.
We worked on reframing that feeling of exposure and the need to "escape." When you have a solid mental toolkit, you don't need a toilet stall to hide in; you carry your calm with you.
The truth is, your anxiety is manageable, and you don't have to carry the burden of public shame.
