So annoyed I didn’t fly

Just need to tell someone. I’m so annoyed with myself. Have a bad form of asthma but usually is ok. My blood pressure was up and my oxygen level was 93/94. Was meant to be going on a 6 and a half hour flight with friends and because I was worried about my health, I got myself stressed at the airport and ended up not flying.
The 5 friends I was meant to be going with are all totally fine about it and no one has lost any money( apart from me). The money doesn’t bother me as much as it was a very good deal for the flight but I’m extremely annoyed at myself for stressing like that about my health and then not flying and missing out. If it was a 2 or 3 hour flight then I’d have got on, but it was the thought of getting on a 6 hour flight when I was stressing about my health. Won’t get it back on insurance as technically there wasn’t a reason I couldn’t fly but it’s not that- I’m just absolutely kicking myself that I didn’t man up and get on the plane
Just need to get this out. Sorry...

Could you get a later flight so you haven't totally missed out?

Did you post about this the other day?

Your oxygen level is not particularly low. Sounds like a panic attack, have you had them before?

No, I didn’t post the other day about this.
I get anxious, but I don’t tend to take panic attacks. Maybe it was one! If I still go, I can still have a few days with them. Maybe I should go to the airport at the equivalent flight time. Probably not tomorrow, but maybe Thursday or Friday
Kicking myself for not manning up!!

You'll need to book a ticket before you go to the airport. If your unused ticket was a return, the return will have been cancelled as well. Have a look at the cost of rebooking.
