SO EMBARRASSED!

So some of you already know I used to have Bathophobia (if you read my Author's Notes on Enemy Trouble you would know). And you know how I said I overcame it last year with the help of some police people. Well, I thought that would be the complete end of my fear of depths and tonight after more than a year I went for a swim with my best friend.

So I was like totally cool and swimming around and she asked to go further with her and I did. Apparently I haven't completely gotten the hang of this whole swimming thing as I've only swam once in my life before tonight and that too more than a year ago. Just when we started going further I started panicking and I felt myself going down into the water so I started screaming "I'm drowning! I'm drowning! Somebody help me I'm drowning! I'm drowning!" I kept screaming and then a man came up to me and was like "You can stand at this depth..." and then I tried to stay steady and apparently he was right <_< I could stand at that depth!

I was like "Oh..."

So ing embarrassed I swear. Everybody (and there were a lot of people) in the area were looking at me, the dumb girl who apparently drowned in a depth where she could stand -.-"

Somebody please do the honor of killing me T_T ?

This is why I don't even bother getting out of the house. I'm just the epitome of embarrassing. P.s. I've got a phobia of holes. Search it up

I know that feeling. In fact, when I didn't even go deeper. I started panicking like I'll die.

There was a time I was sitting alone in the cafeteria waiting my friend to buy her coffee and I was busy writing she came up to me and she was trying to scare me and I screamed so loud that everyone started to Look at me as if I was crazy and my friend did not expect me to react like that
So after that she sat down in front of me drinking her coffee she uncrossed her leg and her foot touched mine and I thought that there were someone grabbing my foot under the table then I screamed again even more louder and I was soooo embarrassed

P.s. I have a really high pitched scream

Well you had a legitimate fear, it's not something to be ashamed of. Not to mention knowing that you can stand up in a certain section of the pool isn't something you automatically know. I haven't learned to swim yet and I never go in deeper than my shoulders and I don't get my head under either. I feel your pain

I don't think you need to feel ashamed though. You've had your past and your fears, so it's understandable that you reacted that way. And if you seriously have swam only once before, going further might have stressed you subconsciously, thus giving you the feeling of drowning. The others just don't know what you've gone through.
