that is all very well, except when anxiety happens in a public place like the supermarket and you slide down the wall on to the floor clutching your head to keep out all the noise. numbers are only useful if you are in a safe place to ring them and away from people so as not to be overheard.

Unfortunately, yes, that is the case Proofreader4. But we still hope that the numbers will be of use to some users.

All the best to you.
