Especially since 9/11, I have found that I am very uncomfortable in crowds of people, and often won't go if I know that there are going to be people jammed up like sardines. What about you, do crowds make you nervous?

I have always had a problem being in a crowd. I feel like there isn't enough air to breath or something. I am not a good people person so I begin to panic. I avoid crowds as much as possible because of this. That isn't always easy to do with three active children.

I hate crowds too, but not just since 9-11. I have and about 100 lbs so the people in a crowd are usually bigger than me and that puts me at a major disadvantage, especially if the crowd started to move quickly, I could b trampled. One time I was a t a bar with a few of my friends and I didn't feel weel so I wanted to go home, well I began to make my way to the door when somehow I got boxed in by a bunch of people all like a foot taller then me, I was screaming "EXCUSE ME" but no one seemed to hear me over the music, so finally I had to just start pushing and kicking people to force my way through, luckily in a crowd when you shove a tall person, and you are short, they will turn around and look right over your head and think it was someone else.
