On Wednesday, Winona Ryder arrived at Heathrow airport only to be whisked away to the hospital!
Winona got really sick during her flight from L.A. to London and the reason is popping too many Xanax pills! If you're wondering, she's afraid of flying and took the pills to fight anxiety!
Oh Winona! But we all know you shouldn't just take Xanax like it was M&M's!
Just as the plain landed, Winona was rushed to the nearest hospital as a precautionary measure. She was discharged an hour later and was in good health.
After gathering her strength, Winona continued her trip and took another flight to another European city.
I am in the same situation as Winona Ryder not only for flying but also for eating out at restaurants and socialising because I suffer from panic disorder. I too take xanax. I feel for her as I take a LOT of them for flying - about 40x1mg (although I managed to cut down to 30mg this year). If I could just take only the max 3mg as stated, I would but I tried that onece for the plane and for 30 minutes I suffered a bombardment of one panic after another. How else can I see my family abroad if I do not fly there? How can I fly there without the xanax ? Nothing has helped 'cure' me of my panic attacks for 20 years now.
Very interesting. Thanks
