[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Intellectually, I know the plane is almost certain to withstand turbulence. But I still hate the feeling (and, yes, I hate theme park rides for the same reason). Does anyone take Xanax or have other tips for dealing with that heart-stopping feeling? Do you take it as soon as you board just in case?[/quote] I take Xanax for every flight. I pop one when I leave the house for the airport. Depending on flight length, I'll take another half before boarding.[/quote] I take a Xanax when I get to my gate. I probably fly 4x a year. I don't really need it, but it helps, and when I am with my family (who are all totally fine to fly) it helps me tamp down my anxiety and set a good example for my still young kid. I don't take Xanax for anything else habitually. I think I took it once before my child's medical procedure, once before a particularly stressful set a visitors arrived, and that's all I can remember taking it for. [/quote]
