Feeling strange in a supermarket aisle and related matters

GrannyGravy13

The only time I have experienced anything remotely resembling a panic attack was whilst wearing a face covering in a shopping mall in November 2020.

I just had to get outside, take face covering
off and breath slowly for a while, I then was able to return find my DiL and continue my Christmas shopping.

Same thing happened to me GrannyGravy13, in a grocery store summer 2020. I felt I would die of suffocation right there in the aisle. Came right out of the blue; thankfully passed off in a moment or two.

I am not a clinician, so although I know it happens, what it is called in any paticular occurrence I don't know.

Not limited to supermarket aisles.

Also known as Agoraphobia; Panic Disorder; or Generalised Anxiety Disorder

Is that what you mean SD?
