    Naomi,

    This is a vividly described piece that really brings the traumas of this condition to the fore and sheds a little light on a very serious problem that so many have to live with.

    Well done,

    Ben

    Naomi, you really brought an episode of anxiety home. Such a scary time. I'm guessing that was Patrick holding onto you? He's a good guy. Nothing to be embarrassed about, things happen, as long as you weren't hurt, that's all that matters. Hugs-Brenda

    Thank goodness for the kindness of strangers. I can totally understand this happening more in public. Crowds, so much going on around you could definitely cause an episode. Do they give you any techniques that can help you deal better with crowds and such?

      They do, but i tend to run away to the nearest toilet and hide and do it in private when i feel it coming on.. however, i havent made it in time and just panicked myself more.. :(
