I can’t think of anything prettier than a flower covered meadow, thunder and lightning that are filling the night with their power, a bird singing its melody on a misty morning or a roaring river that is fighting its way through the mountains. Nature is the most amazing piece of art and it’s an honor that we’re able to live on this mesmerising planet.
Return from the Stars, by Stanislaw Lem, published 1961.
this is wild
Fun fact: Stanisław Lem was such a genius (a sci-fi writer, philosopher, futurologist, that Philip K. Dick suspected him of being a provocation made by Communists because he thought it was impossible that one person could write on a variety of topics, and in a variety of styles, so well and extensively. So, Dick basically decided that Lem was really a number of writers employed to sway public opinion. Plot twist – he was not, he was just so ahead of his times.
@hellfireandheartstrings it looks like we have something *similar* to that here, called Lunesta, but not that exact drug. Some kind of sleeping pill may work though.
@anothertroy that’s a good point, ty: at least it will end. And probably not in painful death, statistically that’s terribly unlikely |D BUT I hadn’t really thought about it like that, it’s just this built up dread. Thank you. We have a klonopin prescription but I need to like…try that this weekend and see if it does anything or is more like valium which does only a little and when you’re terrified that’s not enough. This phobia suuuuuucks.
hopefully something works out! that’s rough stuff. we wish you a lot of luck.
ty! it’s been NINE YEARS since the incident that made us terrified of flying, you’d think maybe we’d get better but we…don’t. We’re so scared, it gives us nightmares and panic *all the time*
Last month our mom was visiting, and she’d recently broken her wrist so she couldn’t carry anything and had to check her bag. I took her into the airport to check her bag back home and had a heart-pounding, nauseating panic attack just from being in the airport.
I mean like I Personally am furious that we’re like this but nothing any specific person here does made us this way or can fix us being this way bc the trauma is stuck in the body!
would sleep medication be something worth pursuing? even something that does motion sickness, too, like bonine or dramamine are real good at creating sleepiness.
I’m not sure. Honestly it might have to be something that just *will make us sleep* and I’m not sure klonopin will do it. The last time we flew, it took three valiums to get through a five hour flight, partially bc our body processes valium out way too fast and partially bc it was 2 hours of turbulence and it was a fucking nightmare. Maybe I’ll get some dramamine and take one on a Saturday just so I can see how much it affects us? We’re weird about what kinds of drugs do and don’t affect us. Thanks for the suggestion. This fear is really awful. :
