'I am not alone'

Query: "I would just like to say that one paragraph of the little you wrote on flying has made me feel so much better....knowing I am not odd or alone. It described me perfectly. I was a seasoned traveller, had a terrifying panic attack on a plane last year, and am now terrified to get on the plane next week.... 

However, your description has made me feel normal, and made me realise.. If I get on the plane calm and relaxed next week....I should be fine!!  Thanks a lot.. I no longer feel like an oddity....

Answer: Thanks for the nice comments. A suggestion... Deal with the panic habit first. The flying phobia may well be the result of the panic - which in turn, generally results from a period of sustained stress or anxiety or lifestyle disruption.

(So you may need to also attend to the latter area even before resolving the panic habit)

Incidentally due to the delay, caused by holidays, in getting back to you it's possible that you will be reading this email after your plane trip. In which case, I hope it went well! Reg

NLP

NLP is used to develop the ideas and themes on this site. I have been using it for over two decades to help me understand how I and other people tick and in my work as a consultant and trainer - and it continually impresses me.
