# I gradually became terrified
isn't that odd? I loved flying and then I did it a lot and after a few bad flights I realized that I started to panic as soon as the plane was in the air. Now I require tranquilizers and alcohol to even be on the thing. My last flight, everything was stopped while they moved me to the front of the plane..very embarrassing.

# And costly
last christmas I gave up a plane ticket to California and opted for the train (the worst 72 hours of my life) because all I could think of was the impending horror of the flight.

# Unless
you're hurling abuse at them or attacking them., I don't see a problem with inflicting your worries on them.

You won't be the first and certainly not the last either.
