Anyone else get crippling anxiety asking row to get up for you on the plane? I got stuck in the window and am absolutely dying. I keep telling myself it’s irrational but can’t get over it...

Nope. If you get to the point where you pee your pants, you’ll get over the anxiety about asking someone to get up real quick. Also, I make sure to sit in the aisle specifically for this reason. 😀

I always find if people are nice and apologetic about asking seat mates to get up its a non-issue.

Yes! Which is why I always choose the aisle seat. Also, honestly—I like having the excuse to stand up for my seat mates and move around some. Tell yourself you are sitting in a row of people like me :)

Ok so. I have been on this journey for almost a year now to try and 'get to know and love myself' and I'm not there yet. I separated from my ex in March of 2020 and divorce was finalized in October 2020. I'm still sad, lost, angry etc. I'm trying/tried therapy, meditation, ayurveda, self help videos, books, but I'm not happy with myself and I don't think I know myself. I want to be happy alone before I meet anyone new. Any tips or advice on how I can effectively accomplish this? Thank you!
