Posting here for traffic but think I ANBU to think there are other people like me so someone must know something!
Is there a way to deal with airport security procedures when you have PTSD?
I agree to being scanned and even patted down but I have PTSD and I end up having flashbacks/panic attacks/passing out. I am in (trauma) therapy and have addressed this a few times with different techniques/angles. It’s getting better but it’s still bad and prevents me from travelling unless it’s essential. It totally prevents me from travel to the USA.
Again, this isn’t a thread to complain about the security screening/scanning. I’m agreeing in principle to being scanned and patted down.
Is there a way to request assistance in going through specifically for people with PTSD?
AIBU?
