    Anticipatory anxiety about flying<\/h2>\n

    Although your next flight is still days or even months away, your thoughts are focused on this event. You feel a certain anxiety arising and this tends to increase as the deadline approaches. This is called ‘anticipatory anxiety<\/strong>‘ and for some people it can become so intense that it causes sleep disturbances<\/strong> and problems concentrating at work… These anxiety states vary from person to person.<\/p>\n

You may also be hyper-vigilant to the environment and your anxiety only increases when specific events occur (bad weather, suspicious or unfamiliar noises, feeling watched, etc.). You look for the slightest clue that something might happen while trying not to let your discomfort show.<\/p>\n
