Mom Is Afraid Of Airplanes

   Aircraft phobia is a common problem. There are sedatives that are taken before the flight, but with a prescription. Your mother should be aware that cars are much more dangerous than airplanes, car accidents happen every day, while airplanes less than once a year around the world.

   Hi, I'm scared to fly a plane too. My heart will jump out of the coat. Years ago I made bus trips around Europe. It's awful because I couldn't sleep and a few days later I had to recover. My doctor recommended that I take a pill of lexotan (a sedative, sold over-the-counter). I take it 30-40 minutes before the plane takes off. After taking off, and reaching a certain height, the stewardesses began to offer food and drink. I order wine. The combination of lexotan and alcohol works wonders. And the heartbeat disappears, and courage returns. I look out the window, I go to the toilet ... I can handle the flights at all. You should know that many people are afraid to fly a plane. Some admit it, others (usually men) don't. It is very restrictive. Encourage your mother to talk to a doctor, to assess whether he could recommend such pills (sedatives). Usually the combination of "sedatives" and alcohol is not recommended because it is dangerous, but wine is not a high-alcohol beverage, and if not abused, the risk of poisoning is low. Congratulations and good luck!

   The problem is not her sick heart, but the fact that she is clearly afraid of flying. I myself do not have any problem, but I have heard of various drugs that calm your nerves and are herbal, so they can not harm her. It is best to ask at the pharmacy, otherwise you can give her "mint, hawthorn and valerian". It is also herbal (liquid) and works well and relaxing. Once you get on the plane, your mother will see for herself that there is nothing, but nothing scary, and at the same time it is fast and convenient. Where better to fly 2-3 hours and cool girls to serve you coffee, instead of driving the car on broken roads for 10-15 hours or more. You just have to scare your mother once. I knew a man like your mother who said he didn't get on such a thing. E, we loaded it almost by force once and then on the way back he wanted to fly himself because he saw that better 1 and something on the plane than 20 on the train. So your mother seems to be just using her heart as an excuse because she's ashamed to be afraid to fly. And the two have nothing to do. And my grandmother has a sick heart, but her wife flies and she doesn't care.

   If she is afraid of planes, you will travel by car. It does not contradict her to spend 1 or 2 days on the road, so there is a problem, she does not think she does it for fun. Reconcile as you grow up, travel with whatever you want.

   I, on the other hand, have a lot of fun flying, it is the best when taking off and landing, otherwise the flight itself is nothing special, even in my opinion it feels like comfort and comfort from traveling by train or bus. It has happened to me several times when the plane approaches to land, the neighbors in the seat ask me if I travel often and if what is happening is normal, I find it funny but I say - "yes, it's always like that" ... By the way, traveling with a car is much riskier than a plane. Across the EU, I can guarantee that there are at least 60-80 road accident victims EVERY DAY! Now you tell me how many are the victims of plane crashes within Europe from the beginning of the year until now ..

   And I'm afraid of planes
