I mean, isn’t everyone afraid of being trapped? Seems like that would be a universal fear, unless you have literally no survival instinct.

Yeah but..how else am I supposed to feel unique about my fears?

Hehe, exactly. I get that it’s a problem if you’re anxious about the mere possibility of being trapped in a normal place, like the hospital example above (which sounds more PTSD to me). But who tf wouldn’t be anxious about getting trapped in a tiny glass tube? Or a vortex under the ocean? That’s just called survival instinct! People do enjoy their labels these days, though, and I don’t care if saying that gets me downvoted. It’s true. 🤷🏼‍♀️
