I felt super anxious before I boarded a flight today. I had thoughts of running back to the exit gate but didn’t move. When I finally boarded I started to break down and cry. Tried deep breathing exercises and also to meditate. 

It was quite embarrassing because people around you don’t know how to react when you are wailing and there is no way you can jump off the plane. 

Have you ever had a breakdown or an episode on a flight ? What did you do to feel better?
