Today, I was in the bathroom at work. The lock on the stall door broke, and I couldn't open it. I was all alone and I started having a mini panic attack. After several minutes of frantically trying to fix the lock and hyperventilating, I realized I could just crawl under the door. FML

Anyone down voting this has never had an anxiety attack, obviously. Rational thought flys out the window for a good while once one sets in. That said, I'd've waited until someone came in and could get me out because like hell I would crawl on pissy public bathroom floors.

I'm pretty sure a bathroom door isn't the hardest stuff to get through. I'm not sure if I want to crawl under the bathroom especially in a men's bathroom

I don't understand why this has so many down votes. I have anxiety and having a panic/anxiety attack can be stressful and can leave you feeling emotionally unstable to the point where you can't really think straight

Exactly, it's gross to crawl under **** that. Chuck Norris your way out of there.

You gotta do what you gotta do. Crawl under, get back up and wash your hands. Problem solved.

As some one who used to clean bathrooms at work, trust me when I say women's bathrooms are more disgusting.

im pretty sure you can kick or climb over in my school we kick stalls doors down to piss off our friends without to much problem especially faulty ones plus an excuse to have a longer break

That must have been, shitty! No? Anyone? Ok.... I'll go jump off a bridge now

That's a shi- *stops* OH MY GOD THAT WAS TOO CLOSE

Good job! You stopped yourself before it got worse! You are a true survivor!

The following comments are going to be nothing but downvoted toilet/shit jokes, mark my words.

In a public bathroom, i would've rather gone over the door than under it...

Bathroom Stall Panic Attack is a hit waiting to happen.

Too late, Schmoyoho already made a song about bathrooms.

"Bathroom Stall Panic Attack" is an awesome band name.

I've had plenty of pains attacks, and rational thought does fly out the window, but I honestly don't see a reason to panic about being locked in a bathroom stall. It reminds me of the people who panic after an escalator stops. Just walk up the stairs. Just crawl under the door.

23, if rational thoughts go out the door, then crawling under the stall door wouldn't be thought of

But 23, how can they walk up the stairs if they're trapped in an elevator...? Edit: Err wait you said escalator. But I've never heard of people panicking after an escalator stops.

You know what you're right. Shame on me. I down voted because I thought that's a stupid way to get stuck but I also suffer panic attacks. It's not fun and yes all thought goes out the window. Especially if you're claustrophobic.

it's not rational that the panic attack started to begin with, those doors are as easy to kick through as cardboard..
