Travel home from Orlando. I had a mild panic attack on the plane. I had a window seat and a large lady and sat in the middle seat. When she did, it was like the air went away and I got very hot. It lasted on a few minutes I took off my hoodie and got the air to blow on me then I was fine.
I took about an hour nap.
