> How common is it for divers to start panicking underwater? It surprises me that that's even a thing.
I am a seasoned and experienced diver. I used to dive literally on a daily basis. Until that one time when without warning I totally freaked the fuck out at 20 mtr over nothing at all, with only UP UP UP UP UP on my mind. I managed to keep a lid on it and safely ascend, but that was also my last dive. I am not sure this will won't happen again, and I could endanger my buddy, group, or myself.
