@ArraDreaming I honestly think I would have had the same reaction. It's okay to get flustered, and then even overwhelmed, and then end up in full blown panic, because too many things hit you all at once. Maybe they are all every day problems, but you don't deal with all of them at once every day, so it's okay to not be able to deal sometimes!
I struggle in crowded shops because of this kinda stuff too, so definitely not alone in that 💜

It is just complete overwhelm, all the people, trying to hold everything, waiting forever, a small child whinging in my ear, trying to remember if had everything, the phone going off, wondering If I have enough money in my account, Someone standing so close behind me I could feel their eyes staring into my skull. and then it gets worse the more you get overwhelmed my mask started getting all sweaty I felt like I was on all hot, needed to get out of there and when I did, it got even worse, christ
