Fear of Flying - Help Please

We have a flight in 8 days. I am extremely nervous. My anxiety is not with the plane crashing, but more so in having an anxiety or panic attack once on board.

I have flown before, including October, with little issue, but my anxiety lately has really taken off.

My Dr. prescribed Klonopin, 10 pills, 0.5 mg. Both he and the pharmacist recommened "testing" ahead of time. Today I took one, about 90 mins later I did feel a little more relaxed and a little tired, but not what I feel is enough. Now, 8 hours later, I feel pretty much the same as before the medicine.

I have a follow up Wednesday. I feel like I need something stronger or different.

Any thoughts?
