Mine will prescribe diazepam for me, I just use it for flights. Have also done CBT for it which helped a bit too.

My MIL takes sleeping pills that were prescribed for flying. The drowsy feeling helps her stay calmer

BA does a great course that might help, if you still have time www.flyingwithconfidence.com

Your GP might prescribe you a beta blocker. I'd prefer that over anything else as you can still drive etc, but you just don't feel the physical effects of anxiety.
