Found your post through @angelacs entry for the pay it forward contest this week @rosebell😉. Some experts will call the situation as the first state of hidden stress.. I've experienced it many times and I agree with you that talking to others or interaction is the best way to release the pressure. But for me.. writing is the best way to find the roots of the stress 😊 after that I will set a meet up with best friends and have fun.
Thanks God that you've overcome the situation.. you're so lucky to have a seat mate who love to laugh. Thank you for sharing this with us and wish you all the best👍
