   Carol, 26, another hodophobe, describes how she used to react to boarding a plane—before she stopped flying altogether (she wouldn't let us use her real name because she's embarrassed about her phobia): "I'd feel like I was walking to the electric chair. I'd cry, make a scene. I've canceled trips because I was so sure the plane was going to crash. I tried getting drunk, taking sedatives. But if you body thinks it's in danger, it's hard to calm down."
