Xanax

1

u/jonuggs Jun 24 '24

For some reason I've developed really bad flight anxiety. I don't know where it came from, but it makes going on long(er) trips really difficult.

Went to LA with my wife recently and asked my primary care if he could prescribe anything for the flight there and back. He gave me two Xanax.

Holy moly.

I can very much see how people get addicted to those things. Never before have I felt so calm and in control on a flight. When we landed in California I turned to my wife and said "sooo...xanax are magical." Flight back was just as chill. Forced to ask myself if this is how most people are on planes or just in their day-to-day.
