This is a problem I have encountered at work. If I\'m asked to go do something on the sales floor at Walmart and there\'s ALOT of people and if they all get close to me I start sweating and my anxiety starts to build. If I\'m at the service desk I\'m better because I have the desk in front of me that way the customers can\'t get too close to me. I only have one supervisor that knows of my anxiety and depression but she ain\'t always there to help me. Should I let a supervisor on each shift know that if I say \” I need to get away\” that there\'s a reason behind it and that I\'m just not making it up. I try to hold on for as long as I can with my anxiety building but every person has a point were they need to say \”enough\”. There was one incident were my anxiety built so high that I was crawling onto the store shelf just to try to get away from all the people. I came home that night and was still frazzled out that I couldn\'t even be near my own family. The only thing that I could be around was my Jack Russell Terrier named Angel. I even left work and went to the hospital because I thought my heart was going to beat right on out of my chest. Turns out I had a panic attack according to the ER dr. I don\'t want my anxiety to affect me while I\'m at work. I should be able to walk into a group of customers and give them the Walmart customer service they deserve instead of crawling onto a store shelf just to get away . Hopefully I can get a grip on it soon that way it don\'t cost me my job
