    Question anxiety/stress.....what can I take?

    Not sure if this is the right place or not.......

    I'm good at stressing at the best of times, it runs in the family!! about 10months ago I was on a short flight that needed an emergency landing due to smoke filling our cabin. It was very scary at the time & has put me off flying for ever!!!! I was always a nervous person on a plane to start with.

    Problem is I have to fly from QLD to SA next week for a Wedding...with only 4.5wks to go then I really don't want to stress, but I can't stop thinking about it. I never wanted to go, but we are very close to this couple & I didn't want to not go just for my fear of flying. I'm stressing I'll put myself into premature labour due to me stress over it

    Does anyone know of anything at all I can take to keep me calm?? anything??

    Rescue remedy? Available most places these days. You could go and see a natropath, but given you're flying next week you might not have time. Maybe pop into your local health food store and ask the naturopath on duty. They might be able to recommend something else.

    I agree with Falguni on the Rescue Remedy. See if Lulu can make you a custom Bach Remedy.

    thanks guys....I thought there was someone on here that could help but wasn't sure. I live remote, so no health food store, I'll just have to try the Chemist. Arrrggghhh I'm just so worked up about it, I really just want to go & enjoy myself. It took me til last week to book our flights I was just so trying to put it off & we've known about the wedding for 6months!!!!!

    Most pharmacies sell rescue remedy. Probably at the airport. Not sure if express post would make it from Vic to you in time, but maybe pm lulu.
