Justin,
Witness to what? A panic attack? Just guessing because of the category you've posted under.

If the subject of lecherous behaviour takes offence, or anyone else, or if a boss sees it, you can find yourself on the end of a Disciplinary for sexual harassment. It's all in your company handbook, t&c's, etc and don't forget the law too.
Whether it is acceptable otherwise depends on who you are and the extent of it. Many people do it, but doing it in your head can be different to voicing it aside from making it obvious.

Yes, yes, I was panicking. Panic overwhelmed me and I couldn't get the whelm back down to an acceptable level for many minutes.

And how can members help? That's what we're all here for.

You can help my whelm reach normal levels (again) just with some kind and supportive words.

We're all here because we suffer from anxiety in one form or another. I've had to deal with this for the best part of 40 years and I know how hard it can be. We're members because we need help and can also offer support to others when we need it. We may not understand your exact situation but we'll try our best to help.
Remember that you've got through it before and you will again. Work with your doctor, carry on your agreed treatment be it talking therapy or meds and let people help you.
We all present a front which helps us to cope but there are times when the best thing is to let our guard down and listen to people who are trying to help.
Hope that helps

It took a few before I realized you were talking about having a panic attack at work. What does lechery have to do with that?
Many people have posted about having panic or anxiety attacks at their place of employment. I'm sorry it happened to you. Hope you're feeling better now.

I'm being chased by a cougar at work. She just wants my body. She's quite hot, but the whole situation makes me anxious.
Perhaps a coherent post explaining your situation would yield the support you seek but then again, often you write in riddles and obscure imagery and it actually seems like you're rather smitten of the fact you're being pursued despite your claim of it making you anxious as evidenced in your other thread.
I don't know what to make of your posts tbh. There's a rather underlying disturbing element to them...
I hope you find what you're seeking...

The other thread, and Adam's comments, are a good thing to consider when it comes to posting style. Certain types of Thought Disorders often manifest this way too.
Back to the subject though. As far as work goes, men & women are bound by the same codes of conduct. If you are uncomfortable with her behaviour, tell her. If she won't stop it, you have the option of a grievance to your line manager on the basis of sexual harassment.
However, lets remember we don't live in that fluffy PC world a lot of people seem to think. Your line manager has to take it seriously and be professional but there is that element of "she's a cougar and empowering herself" whereas reversing the roles becomes "he's a dirty old pervert".
Bound to be quite a few cougars at the FCO, particularly now that Boris is Head Honcho.. Doesn't make it any easier for you though.
Maybe you could offer to show her your Spam tin collection?

Yes, I suppose I am. But I am not easy. You'll have to wine and dine me first...
On Spam?
Get in there, Karina!
Feeling mentally unwell tonight.
I've been in this situation in the past and didn't have anybody to 'report' it to as the person in question was the owner of the academy where I was working at the time.
I didn't want to give up what I had there for the sake of all those who attended but it got so serious that I had no other option, looking back there were things I could have done to address what was happening but I was young and just wanted out of there.
You've posted quite a few times about this is it the same person?

I think I 'll take a pass on that one. I do have Some class.:D.

Two or three are besotted with me. I can't blame them.

I'm feeling a little queer. (That's a Ricky Gervais/David Brent joke). Oh no, he said he'd "never come over a little queer". The joke is basically the same, though. My version just implies fondling whereas the Gervais/Brent one alludes to ejaculation.

I hope that answers your question.

You really shouldn't joke about that. :weep:
About what? Who says I'm joking?
Hmm... my ex is Katie.

I'm closing this thread as I can't see how NMP members are able to contribute and help you. Also, such posts breach NMP rules due to direct suicide references.
You have posted similar things before so I am unsure if you mean it or if you want to provoke a reaction from members. If you are considering taking an overdose, I urge you to speak to some friends or contact the Samaritans or A&E immediately. If you are trying to illicit a reaction here to get members to support you, please say so and we will try our best to help.
Take care
Pip
