I myself have experienced panic attacks and have suffered with claustrophobia most of my life. For me, it’s usually little more than an inconvenience, but for many others, anxiety can significantly inhibit their enjoyment of life. Anything that can be done to help them and to remove the needless stigma still attached to anxiety is to be supported.”
