I was in a cafe, and was sat in a cramped seat in which i wasn't comfortable at all, this felling of being unable to move triggered a mild claustrophobic reaction, which then went after 4-5 seconds.
I had the same feeling a couple of nights ago while getting into bed, I felt claustrophobic and was genuinely scared. The fear was triggered because of the thought of having the sub play all night, my mind was telling me not to play the sub. I overcame it and went to bed with the US playing.
I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this? Is this my body's way of triggering resistance by installing a basic fear? Its like my mind is wrapped up with cling film or a bubble and I am not in a clear reality.
Sounds like you just described me 100% back when I first started subs. One sub in particular TLAM did all that to me so badly I thought I ruined my brain forever, constantly thought I was about to have a heart attack my anxiety was through the roof, I swore I'd never touch subs again, and I didn't for about a year. After that I'd still experience all that with each new sub but I must be used to it now because now that never happens.
What sub are you running?
