That's a shame @onethousandwords it can take some people like that! It is a completely unnatural thing for us as humans to be breathing underwater so a panic reaction is completely understandable. I felt a few panic feelings when I was first learning but if they are very strong attacks you are best to be safe and leave the scuba diving. Maybe try snorkeling? Especially in any tropical reef environment you can see most of what you would see if diving from the surface. I will be posting lots more articles like this one so keep an eye out to live vicariously through my blogs and maybe give me a follow, the next one is going to be about diving with seals. Thanks for your comment I have followed you :)

Hi @onethousandwords - Scuba scribe #5, Just Beneath the Surface is now out. This time it’s an underwater adventure in poetry form, featuring sharks, Jacks and parrotfish but no whales as yet. Check it out if you have a minute. Many thanks 💦 🐠 https://steemit.com/poetry/@raj808/just-beneath-the-surface
