<human>:  How can I get rid of a fear of flying?
<bot>: One way to get rid of a fear of flying is to start by educating yourself about how airplanes work and how safe modern air travel is. Additionally, you can look into cognitive-behavioral therapy, which can help you recognize and challenge irrational thoughts associated with flying. Additionally, you could try desensitization, which involves gradually and systematically exposing yourself to the fear and therefore aiding in your ability to cope with it. Finally, you can practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing and visualization, as a way to reduce feelings of stress and anxiety.
