I can say as an anxiety sufferer and avoider of planes is that the discomfort helps me feel grounded (literally hah). It's its own kind of comfort.

Cheers, I thought I was the only person like this :) (also didn’t tie it to my anxiety, but it’s extremely obvious in retrospect. This is too short and elides the own kind of comfort part, but I guess it means I can’t spin out, ruminating on or creating other problems, when I have stuff right here to complain about!)
