Hello Crinkle
We all have some kind of severe anxiety and phobias, and we're here to help ssmile
Welcome :color

hey you guys just feeling really frustrated with my aerophobia at the moment. My best friend is turkish and planning a trip. 'we live in Australia and he desperately wants me to come with him. I flew to melbourne a few months ago which is only 2 hours away and it was absolute hell for me. I had to catch a bus back! I have always wanted to go to Turkey! But it is such a long flight and it seems inconceivable to me. I get panicky just thinking about it. I have looked at medications and been all over the internet looking for help. I just seem to be hitting dead ends. Soar and other companies that offer help are just so expensive and do they really work? Help!!! Crinkle

Crinkle, how about having some pills that keep you relaxed or maybe make you sleep for determined hours, so that you can't feel that you're in an airplane! how about that?
turkey is a very wonderful country, you can't miss it!

Hi, thanks for your reply. I do want to take pills, but they never really helped before and I can't find a suitable type of medication. Got any suggestions?

Sadly no
However, I think it's best for you to ask a pharmacist, he will definitely give you answers about anything you want to know, and hopefully he will be capable of giving you specific drugs that will help!
