Are you the type who panics when theres an emergency situation? Do you keep your common sense in emergency situations? Have you ever encountered an emergency situation and you have to do something. Would love to hear your story. Happy posting

I am the type of person that has been known to panic in situations. I have been lucky that it has never been a situation dealing with my kids though. But there have been plenty when it comes to my pets though. Like one day I came home and my dog was lying on his side and was dying and I did not know what to do. My husband is the cool head in these situations so I am glad that I have him.

I'm glad for you as well that you have a husband who remains composed and collected when it comes to emergency situations. I'm sure that you'll overcome your panic when emergency situations arise. And I hope that younever have to experience it as well. Happy posting!

Hi there, There have been many people that have complemented me on the way that I've handled certain stressful situations. What they do not realize, is that I am actually quite bothered by those stressful situations, I can just set my personal feelings aside, while I get done what needs to be done. It is only after the crisis is over, that I have time to stand back and think about what has happened. This is usually when I fall apart. I can handle almost any situation that comes my way I think in the moment, it is afterwards that I will need somebody to help me through whatever the crisis was that occured. This is why I said I need someone to help me with my own mini crisis after the initial crisis is over. Many times, after a particularly stressful situation I will burst into tears. For me personally, I think that's just how my body processes the stress of the situation. While I don't particularly like people to see me bawling and blathering all over the place like an idiot, I suppose that is better than panicking in the moment. Happy Mylotting!

I have been in several emergency situations and I must say that I respond very very calm. I am never panic I think that is the worst way to respond. I am completely calm and I move with haste..........Great Day!
