I didn’t used to be afraid of elevators. I used to enjoy when I had to take the elevator. It was like a mini theme park ride.
Today, I had to take an elevator. It filled me with fear.
I don’t think I mentioned in all the chaos that was going on while my dad was in the hospital (or maybe I did) that I got stuck in the hospital elevator on my last day there. The elevator fell several feet and then stopped, with me trapped inside. It terrified me. Mostly the fall. Now, I’m afraid every elevator is going to fall.
That sounds like a natural response to me…that would have scared me to death!

I have nightmares about elevators. Every time I have to ride one, I squeeze myself into the corner and don’t breathe until I get out. I feel you!

That sounds absolutely terrifying and as like a few people have said, this is probably a natural response, but I can totally understand how you feel, given my major fear of elevators! xx

I had a panic attack in an elevator once when too many people crowded in and then it stopped. I will go in one now but not if too many people are in there. I’ll wait for the next one.
