Hello folks,
Now for the last couple of weeks, I have been dealing with anxiety. I also asked my girlfriend to marry me during this period as well. I just graduated from a top notch flight school and am actively pursuing a Flight Instructing job in Florida. I have never had anxiety before but I talked to a therapist and she told me that these types of things occur when you are concerned about the future and stability and such. In this profession really?? She also had mentioned she had seen numerous pilots before. I have been able to relax a bit more and see that I am heading in the right direction without any sort of medication or help. This leads the question, do many pilots deal with anxiety and why arent some anti anxiety drugs allowed to be used. I mean isnt this a stressful job?
Any idea?
