Corrupt_Power posted... having a panic attack because you said "you too" when your waiter said "enjoy your meal" Is this really a thing Yeah. Which is fine, so long as you recognize it's not healthy (the panic attack, not the verbal slip-up; everyone does that now and then) and are actively trying to understand why you respond that way and what you can do to work on it. The echo chamber that is the internet though has this weird, perverse, almost celebratory attitude towards it now, which is bad. Who is celebrating that and why? I'd actually worry about people who react this strongly to inconsequential events like this. If they find themselves in social situations, if they perceive someone to have embarrassed them over something minor, or if someone makes a small joke at their expense, what are they going to do? Have a meltdown? Panic attack? Get violent? --- https://imgur.com/lwkIVOb <cite>REMercsChamp posted [p:901182755] in Normalizin...
