Are you claustrophobic or do you know someone who is?

Claustrophobia is the fear of closed or confined space. I am a little claustrophobic. Two times when I, along with my friends, was in a small computer room in our hostel, I felt dizzy. It doesn't affect me for a long time.. As soon as they opened the windows, i became fine within a few minutes. It happened to me several times. Are you claustrophobic or do you know someone who is?

@Sheali I think I just may be. I don't like being in a position where I feel trapped or held against my will. I panic in these sorts of situations. I hate that feeling.

@Sheali True. I haven't been in the position yet where I'm in a small space. But the other thing I described is awful to feel. Only because I've been in those positions where someone has held me against my will. He did it often. I hated it.

That is not really claustrophobic.. That is more like you don't like being dominated or should I say your are not submissive.. which is good

Even I live in open spaces but at times, there can be spaces like a car in winter when the AC is not on.
