So I'm off on a city break with a few friends next week. Just four days to break up the January blues! I'm looking forward to it, but my fear of flying is ruining it!

I've flown since I was a child and for 12 years straight made transatlantic flights at least once a year, I've done euro trips flying from country to country etc, but every time a flight is coming up I spent weeks before it working myself up to the point I start to panic whenever I think about it. Just today, i was getting out my car at the train station when I had a wave of panic as I imagined the feeling of being on plane that was going down.

I have no reason to feel like this at all. If anyone else has the fear, how do you cope with it? Any tips?
