Please help with anxiety over flying.

Hello all. I just joined this forum hoping someone could help as I am desperate! I am 29 and have flown just twice due to being very anxious. I hate the sensation on take off and landing, I seem to get a very disoriented heavy head dizzy and sinking feeling. When the plane banks I feel really strange too and in flight I get that elevator feeling. I think my anxiety makes it worse and it makes me feel a bit better when I hear that others feel sensations on the plane I feel like maybe one day I can overcome it and do the travel I dream of. My honeymoon is next year and I want nothing more than to fly. Does anyone feel anything similar and still fly? Or know anything that could help? I also suffer in elevators but use them as its over quick! I have seen doctors including Ents and my ears are ok, nothing terrible wrong with my inner ear either. I would love any support or knowledge! Thanks so much for your time .
