It's anxiety, op. Don't be afraid of it, you can learned to manage it.

Keyansier · 04/12/2022 03:58

This sounds like a bit of a stealth post IMO OP to show off about your 'lovely holiday'

In case it's real though: It's pointless googling plane crashes, google isn't a mind reader and can't tell you if the plane you're on is going to crash or not. But the likelihood of a crash is, like me, very, very slim.

Whoopsywoo · 04/12/2022 04:19

Why would I show off on here?
the pony is i don’t understand why I’m feeling this way I’m happy circumstances! It ruins and over takes everything.
if I wanted to show off I’d post on Insta

Just take some time to work out what may have jangled you? Are you tired? Are you stressed about an issue? Is it the change of environment?

Sometimes it's just the small things that run in the background which put us on red alert and give you this feeling that, 'something bad will happen'. If there a pattern to when you get this feeling you can start treating it like a symptom rather than making it meaningful or worrying.

Have you been drinking ? That always makes me more anxious once the high wears off

Getabloominmoveon · 04/12/2022 06:05

I fly every week to Europe on EasyJet. It won’t crash.

Why do you always post such ridiculous things?

The slim comment was an attempt at a joke as I'm slim-bodied. I forgot jokes don't always go down well on here. 🙄

Yeah mate, that’s not a joke.

And it wasn’t that that I was referring to, it was the ‘stealth post’ (I assume you meant stealth boast) about the holiday. You always snipe at an OP it seems.

Just because I didn't agree with the OP doesn't mean I sniped at them. It was an attempted joke with a play-on-words. Sorry if that offended you 🙄

If she was going to stealth boast she'd probably include a bit more detail than 'lovely'...

Yeah it does.

I suffer from anxiety and often feel that sense of doom. Funny enough the bigger the fear, the more fatalistic I seem about it.

I worry about getting to the airport on time, I worry about the parking, the check in, the waiting, my luggage, getting on the plane, the wait for take off.

But once the plane is in the air, I know there is absolutely nothing I can do, so I cease to worry about that. Not sure if that is any help to you.

Keyansier · 04/12/2022 13:25

Herejustforthisone · 04/12/2022 11:26

Yeah it does.

Well ok, I already apologised if it offended you, so we'll leave it at that. I forget that people get offended by the most ridiculous things Hmm

No, I meant ‘yeah it does mean you smiled at them.’ I’m not offended. My reply was ambiguous.

Herejustforthisone · 04/12/2022 22:45

Sniped. Not smiled.

A 'stealth' bragging post mentioning Easy Jet? Confused Is everyone ok?

Mental illness, speak to your doctor when you return
