Hey all
What is the name of the condition when you get stressed out and ''panicky'' when in big crowds. I often get flustered and feel funny if i have to go shopping and there are big crowds of people about. I forget the amount of times iv been in a shop and actually put the items im going to buy back and leave because the queue is too big. I get hot and short of breath and really angry!

You'd be surprised how many people suffer from it to a certain degree, often in silence. Google it, there's lots of info & talk to friends & family, you might find they feel the same.
It sounds like a relatively mild form of Agoraphobia or panic disorder......with a true panic attack, the physical reaction is overwhelming, and almost crippling. But is is a good idea to investigate your symptoms, as what starts as a minor fear can grow.
