“How do you stop anxiety attacks when flying?”

Try to practice mindfulness and staying in the moment...sounds so simple but not so simple to do

Thank you for your question. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), an evidence-based practice that utilizes exposure hierarchies to address the compulsive behaviors used to neutralize anxiety that accompanies obsessive thoughts, has been shown to be highly effective in treating phobias. I highly recommend you seek out some support from a mental health professional to guide you through the process.

I hope this has been helpful!

Best,

Hello and thank you for your question,

Talk therapy can help you develop coping skills for anxiety or you can discuss it with your physician to see if medication is a good option for you.

Thank you,
