hey I\'m glad I stopped by. I was also afraid of flying before the first time I ever flew was from Jax FL to JAPAN! But flying is SO MUCH fun, I love it now. Hope that helps. It also helps that I was 21 and I had a few rum and diet cokes before I went. Just a few though. Congrats on your anniversary. My advice : GO TO HIS GRADUATION. If you don\'t you will regret it later. I went to my wife\'s grad in Illinois and she came to mine years later in Texas. Where does the Army grad from?

Talk to your doctor and ask if he can prescribe you two or three valium, to take during the flight there and back. Don\'t let anxiety hold you back from seeing his graduation. You\'ll always regret it. And we have to fight anxiety or it starts to control your life.
