No offense, but you should go to a doctor an talk to him/her about your anxiety to flying. You are doing yourself a dis-service by polling strangers and asking them what medication and dose. 20-30mg of valium 2-3x a week and up to 2x a day is a huge dose and should not even be considered by someone who is not a regular benzo user. Also, what works for some people might not work for you or worse, knock you out. Do yourself a favor and go see a doc. Usually docs have no problem prescribing benzos for fear of flying.-d
With all due respect, d989, have you asked a doctor for a benzo recently...for anything? That is the reason a big chunk of us are here. For one reason or another, we find our problems consistent or have been diagnosed with particular maladies (emotional or physical), but can't get our doctors to treat us. Thus, we seek to treat ourselves. After four years, I was just now fortunate enough to find a doc who will write me generously for intractable pain. It takes awhile unless you are very, very blessed.
