My girl friend, on the other hand used to fly but over the years she has progressively talked herself to a point of being so scared that she can't even go through security without severe anxiety. Getting on the plane is out of the question. Having traveled a lot myself and it is frustrating to see her miss out on all the culture and experience that traveling offers because of something that isn't real.

I'm not a psychologist but thought could at least try and help people. Thank you for your kind comments. Thank you Chris,

You can discuss all the statistics you like, but I think at the centre of a nervous flyer, like myself, is a deeper fear of living a fulfilled life with all the risks that go with it. Just found this site and really impressed with everything that's on offer for free - keep up the good work! Great article and one which I think gets to the heart of the problem.
