Funny of this Bali talk, showing how important it is to monitor yourself and know your triggers. I was in Singapore a few months ago and went to little india. Like the real india, it is very hot and very crowded, I started to feel like crap, so left there after an hour or so. Then recently I was in bali for the first time with my family for a birthday celebration. More of the same, hot and busy with a lack of personal space which put me on edge. Then my cousin announced over brekky one morning a news story about terrorists targeting planes to Australia, and that set me off, I had to leave a day early.
So like any anxiety issue, my physical reaction was out of proportion to the actual danger, I hadn't taken any meds for 5 years and didn't take them with me .
My case is proof that knowing yourself and your triggers can help to manage anxiety and panic attacks and lessen their impact.
