I have a 3 hour flight tomorrow, the first I have taken since my anxiety and panic disorder returned last year and I am so anxious. I get nauseous, jittery, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and dissociation when I have bad anxiety/panic. I’m afraid I’ll lose control of myself on the plane and do something crazy… even though that’s never happened to me and sounds ridiculous, that’s what I’m afraid of. Not the plane falling out of the sky, just being in a small tube full of people and doing something odd that makes a scene. 

I have 1MG ativan prescribed in case I need it, but I’m nervous I’ll have an adverse reaction or the med won’t work on me. Has anybody taken it and been able to make it through the flight? Need some support right now!
