What's that feeling in my stomach? Oh yeah: PTSD flashbacks and dread. Getting ready to take off from Charlotte to Florida.
Oh no. You are stronger than dread. ??? Just breathe.
I used to scare my late wife,I've got USAF experiences on aircraft maintenance,and would widen my eyes when looking at access panel flapping in the breeze as we taxied before take off,on more than a few times,I got the attention of the passenger(used to be stewardess),and we went back to the terminal for the panels to be secured.
I'm fine with flying. It's Florida, and specifically Tallahassee, that is bad for my spiraling.
Hang in there...close your eyes and dream a favorite dream...
Positive thoughts -
You are going to warmer weather
There is always alcohol
Are you going for pleasure or business?
No booze, but it is quite a bit warmer. Going to clean out a storage unit, because the company who had it is closing up. Lot of memories in this unit. We'll see how it goes.
