I've lived abroad and I'm bilingual. I embrace the world, I just hate getting stuck in the airplane.

Anyway, - nope - has to be able to fly. Has nothing to do with going "overseas". I'm not gonna take a week to go across the country by car or train. And who's going to drive to Riviera Maya or South America?
Amtrak isn't as bad as it seems to be. It takes less than 30 hours to get from Los Angeles to San Antonio by train. If you were rich enough, you could travel like John Madden. Flying isn't the only way to get around.

This is not the drug forum, I guess most people are not that familiar with benzos. I need to take 0.5mg xaxax for a domestic flight and a little bit more for a long-haul flight to avoid full-blown panic attacks. Occasional use of benzos won't lead to addiction, but more frequent use is dangerous.

I do fly when I absolutely need to. Taking off is the most terrifying part, and therefore I avoid extra stops. By the way, I'm a pretty good driver. I can't drive 10 hours a day, but I can still handle road trip if my partner drives too.

We are thinking of hitting the road again…once a gypsy always a gypsy

As for flying…well I am planning on buying my husband lessons so he can get his pilot's license for his next birthday. I think he would love that


You could always be like Mr. T(yup…showing my age, lol) and get knocked out. Are there any places that you want to see that you would need to fly? I'm sure there are ways to calm you without making you addicted if that is the case.
So many bonus points for an awesome A Team reference.
