It infuriates me that someone's irrational inability to hold themselves together will cause problems for hundreds of strangers...maybe thousands down the line due to cascading delays and rebooks..And I have seen it myself more than once.

However, I understand that it can be a lesser evil than having an person out of control aboard, once airborne. Frightening stories abound regarding people who have tried to open emergency exits in flight, or tried to bust down the cockpit doors.

If you are prone to such attacks, either medicate yourself appropriately, or don't fly. It's not all about you. Aviation is a vastly complex system and your causing a delay can ruin logistics for the airline and cause all manner of problems for other passengers.
