Speaking as someone with panic disorder, IBS, and a host of other disabilities, this is exactly what I've been thinking, so thank you. It's hard enough for me to do short-term car rides without my iPod, a book, a notebook, and some other items, not to mention constant bathroom breaks; flying right now's completely out of the question.
There could be problems before flying starts, too. I saw this article a little while ago, and I was furious at the thought that a person's anxiety levels could get them pulled aside in airport security. Certainly, the pressure would be too much for me.
