I would never go anywhere under water. I am a very poor swimmer. Then on top of that I have quite the case of claustrophobia. Being underwater is one of the scariest things I can think about.
My partner really wants me to go scuba diving with him and I just cannot even comprehend the small steps necessary to do it. Being completely surrounded by water, is terrifying.
I wish I could. I would probably love seeing what there is down there, but I cannot. I start to hyperventilate when I think about it for too long.
I have not always been this claustrophobic, but it has definitely gotten worse in recent years. I am sure the pandemic did not help, but my dreams are the worst. I have this recurring nightmare that I am going through a vent system and I get stuck. I am unable to get out again.
