Hello everyone! I'm taking my OW class, completed the pool training sessions and written test. Our class is going to the FL Keys to do 4 dives in the coming weeks. I really trust and like my instructors, who have been so amazingly patient and understanding as I've struggled with anxiety during the pool training. For the first hour of each training session I felt like I could not get enough breath and had to get my head out of the water.Intellectually, I know I'm safe, I'm a good swimmer and I did all the skills with no real problems. But at the beginning, it's an overwhelming feeling of "I don't want to be here, I have to get out." It took me a long time to even get up my courage to descend, then I kept surfacing when there was no reason to. Once I got my rhythm and started swimming around the bottom, doing the skills with my instructor and buddy, I was ok and felt great. But at all 4 pool classes, it took me almost AN HOUR to get to that point. On the Keys trip, there isn't going to time to do that anyway. I'm scared of what will happen on the real dives if this is how I react in a totally safe pool with 2 lifeguards, no current, perfect visibility, etc. Any advice? I'm taking the class with my 13 yo daughter so I really don't want to ruin her dive experience (she loves the class and has had no problems). Thank you!
