    Wow girl....I think I would have wet myself. I suffered from panic attacks for a long time and that was always a fear of mine. BUT you made it through which is so awesome!

    I am so sorry that it happened to you but the fact that you can still type and function shows you are a really strong woman for sure!

    This is one of my BIGGEST fears. I try to take the stairs whenever possible. I could not imagine. I'm one of those people if I have to take the elevator, it can't be crowded or I won't get on or will get off, if I'm all ready there.

    I'm so sorry this happened to you.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: I'm glad you were saved! :bigsmile:

    Hugs from half way 'round the world to you! Maybe it's a good excuse to start taking the stairs for exercise? I've never been stuck in a lift, but can imagine why it would panic you. Hope the rest of your day goes better for ya! :heart:

    and the elevator fell a floor

    OMGosh, that would have done me in.
    I would have peed myself and passed out in fear.
    My heart would have exploded.


    Whew girl, (((hugs)))

    I probably wouldn't be tooo bad with the being stuck part. But falling a floor???? I would have to go home and change clothes!! Goodness girl, glad you are o.k.!! Hey - you made it through an experience that was very scary and panic attack or no - you made it and are recovering from the panic - you are one strong chicka and don't you forget it!! :flowerforyou:

    I'm so sorry. I have not been stuck for long...but my building has the creepiest elevator ever. I avoid it whenever possible... Did you get on the emergency phone right away?
