Summary

In this mini episode, Taylor Alison discusses the sensation of feeling like you're going to pass out in crowded places, explaining it's often due to overstimulation and the body's fight-or-flight response. She emphasizes the importance of staying in these situations to teach the mind there's nothing to fear, and highlights the role of exposure and response prevention (ERP) specialists in managing such anxieties.
