I never used to... I lived in NYC for years and rode the subway in extreme crowds... until one night, I had gone to the San Generro Festival, a very cool street fair, and it was so crowded, I literally got swept up in a wave of people and totally lost my friend who i was with, then I tripped and got walked on by a few people (who couldn't stop because of the crowd) Someone, I have no idea who, helped me up and got me out of the crowd because at that point I was having trouble breathing...) I thought I was Ok... but a few months later I went diving.... and had to surface pretty quickly because I got that same feeling of not being able to control where i was and have not been able to dive since and now it's even worse I can't be in a crowded area unless I have a clear shot at the door to get out...
What's your biggest irrational phobia?
i am creeped out by clowns.. and will cross streets to avoid them... they just give me the heebie jeebies...
