Good Pill To Take For Anxiety On Flights
Question:
Take the benzo at the airport though man. Dont take it on the plane… Benzos can give you a few min of unsure feeling before they set in. I don’t wantr to turn on the news and see you carried out of the airport strapped down. You will be alright guy. ~~Austin~~ –If I leave one foot on yesterday, and another foot on tomorrow, then I am just pissing on today–

I am taking a 3-4 hour flight and this is the first time I’m flying. I know I will be having big time Panic Attacks if I do not get a good Med from my doctor to take for the flight. I take Clorazepate 3.75 mg 3 times a day but I would need much stronger than that with the stress levels I will be on while getting on that plane. Could anyone please help me? P.S. I really do not want to take something that will keep me from producing once I land like a sleeping pill that’s too strong.
Hi Frank. Nothing I know seems to work well for that! (for me anyway!!) My problem is not only the flight, but every day up until the flight. Last time I flew, I had the ticket a month in advance. And from wake-up to bed-time, every day, the flight was on my mind and stressed me. And it was a :50 min flight! You may try a nice glass of milk. It always seemed to work on Mr. T from the A-Team. -good luck Z

The med of choice is the short acting benzo *Xanax*.If you take 1 mg one hour before take-off you will most probably be allright for the next five hours at the least (it may make you a little drowsy) and then you will feel normal again. Philip

Hi Frankie, Talk to your MD about getting a few Xanax tablets for this flight. It is a fast acting benzo and it`s good at aborting a PA. It would be best to take one a 1/2 hour before your flight, don`t even let the anxiety build. Make sure to bring things like books, magazines, walkman, etc, this way you will have diversions. You will do fine
