Hey Johnnie, I just saw this now. These things happen at times because of our

constant anxious thoughts. Once we start focusing into a scary thought, it

escalates and can easily go into panic mode. One of the ways to control it, is

to stop the thought the minute you sense it by looking away, talking with your

friends, looking at your watch, take out a piece of gum or mint. While doing this

start your deep breathing exercises, that will lower your adrenaline rush and

allow you to feel calmer by the time you get off the escalator. It only takes moments

for your breathing to rescue you.

Now, once it is over, leave that thought in the past. It can't harm you anymore,

it's done with. Like if you were watching a tv show and you didn't like it, you'd

switch channels.. You need to do the same thing with this negative thoughts.

I hope by now, it is gone from your mind. Take care of yourself. x

I can assure you that you are not going crazy. It's that subconscious

mind playing it over and over, telling you lies. You're safe Johnny. You are

okay. x
