Confidence (complete loss of!!)

Hi all,

I am in somewhat of a predicament at the moment. It all started about two months ago when embarking upon my fi course. I went up on the pre entry flight test with a certain individual on the South coast who is reverred for being a sod and basically the guy battered the hell out of my confidence. The whole flight was a tyrade of verbal abuse and put down. Since then I have have lost all will and confidence to fly. I even feel nervous going near an aircraft! I havent flown in that two months either.

The funny coincidence is that this individual had the audasity to bang on about the importance of good cockpit cohesion the day before and not to stress your student out! Words from the mouth of the guy who has possibly finished my flying!

Basically, how can I get back in the saddle again and get off the ground? Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Thoughts and help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks
