Emetophobic panic attack!!!

[HelenLouise]

Hey I'm on the train to my boyfriends and the train hasn't even started moving yet but I'm having a panic attack incase I'm sick infront of all these people!
It's not usually this busy so I'm usually ok!
I feel so trapped and like I can't breathe right!

I can't do this anymore.

I can remember feeling that on trains, when i was pregnant with my 1st child, i had to travel to and from work by train every day, i always used to make sure i had a distraction ie magazine, a game on my phone anything that would take my mind off it, also i know train toilets are not that pleasant but i would always try to sit near as poss to a loo, so if i felt like i needed to escape from the crowd i could just go straight into the loo x

Hey

If you calm yourself down then you will be fine.

Try doing something to distract yourself. Have you got some music to listen to? xxx

Just try to distract yourself and you will be fine, you can breath its just another dreaded anxiety sensation xxx

Are you ok? Did you stay on the train? xx

Hi everyone, thank you all for your replies!

Sorry i didn't respond sooner - I lost internet reception on my phone for the whole weekend while I was at my boyfs.

I stayed on the train but was on edge the whole time. It's such a horrible feeling! I just wanted to escape and get off but i knew that would be a stupid idea!

I am determined to do a train journey without having a panic attack! It's just so overwhelming when there is so many people :( xx

You stayed on the train and that is the main thing-well done!!
