My Fear of Flying
Summary
Flying can be daunting, and if you're afraid of it, you're not alone. I too faced this fear and only managed to board a plane at eighteen. I hope this article resonates with you.Article
Facing the fear of flying is a journey many of us share. Personally, it took me until I was eighteen to muster the courage to fly. I'm not looking for thrills or excitement; I prefer to feel in control and avoid risky situations. Roller coasters aren't my thing, and neither is flying. For me, being in a car allows some control, but in a plane, my fate is in someone else's hands. This lack of control is terrifying.
Though statistics show air travel as the safest mode of transportation, it doesn't ease my anxiety. I'd still rather drive. Television shows like Lost have only fueled my fears, depicting scenarios of plane crashes that I can't shake from my mind.
Reading survivor stories of plane crashes in the news hasn't helped either. Imagining the terror they must have felt intensifies my fear.
On a recent flight, something unexpectedly amusing happened. Takeoffs and landings are my least favorite parts, and I was gripping the armrest for dear life as we gathered speed. Once airborne, I realized I had mistakenly grabbed the hand of the person next to me. Apologizing sheepishly, I resolved to be brave.
Facing this phobia is a work in progress, but moments like these remind me I'm not alone.
