I did a search for claustrophobia in support groups because it's a suffocating part of my life, I am working through. I am normally a private person, but the void is there, so I'll enter the frey..be that what may.. I have never created a group before, nor do I intend to ask anyone to join. Do as u will. It's here. Hopefully it helps someone. I'll tell my most recent 'event' please feel free to leave me any advice as I go back to my Dr in 2 weeks.

So, my usual psychiatrist is on vacation ( I have insomnia and I suffer panic/anxiety attacks) I am on a low dose antidepressant to sleep and another med for anxiety attacks (ps I also get migraines) I'm already terrible at story telling haha! Ok let's start over , my Dr went on vacation and I was to see the alternate Dr at his office.  The alt Dr was located in a storage closet behind the reception area. A makeshift office with zero space to walk through. The dr was asking me many questions which were inappropriate as I was only there for my refills, I was not her patient. I couldn't think straight or even make eye contact, I felt like a bird flapping its wings against a window like I was trapped against my will and I couldn't get out. The door was behind me , everything was squished together.  

Ok so that's all for now, it just dawned on me that writing about/ and probably for u reading about claustrophobia is highly triggering ( which is why they didn't have a group!)  One last thing, my Dr knows that I have this- and he knows that I was going into his former filling closet, I want to say something to him, but not end things on bad terms should I decide to go elsewhere (he's in most the local hospitals by me- so that wouldn't be prudent- although I really would love to give him a piece of my mind) any advice as to how I should go About mentioning that situation to him? I was a wreck for 3 days straight after the apt and my heart starts racing right now just at the thought of it. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
