I panicked on the surface on my very first certification dive.
It was cold (beginning of April), it was dark, and despite feeling fine just before entering the water, there was no way I could go down.
That happened three and a half years and 222 dives ago.
I had had six months in the pool.
I did fine the following Sunday, and never stopped since.
I am now an instructor and signed PIC envelopes for my first two students last week-end.
What I can say is: give her the time she needs, let her practice if she thinks she needs to and things will come.
Keep us updated!
