It's an 11.5 hour drive, I might just do that and break it up into two days. I basically suffer from claustrophobia which I can mitigate through a couple drinks on a flight. The issue is the mask. I put one on today as a test and I did not even make it 10 minutes before a panic attack set in.
I was given cloth masks to try out at work in case they become mandatory. I attempted to wear it anytime I was out of my office & couldn't do it because it either set off a panic attack or an asthma attack fairly quickly. I'm leaning towards an asthma attack because I've never had an issue wearing an SCBA although it's been awhile.

We just received some of those blue surgical masks & will have to try them out to see if they do the same thing. I'm guessing they will if it's due to my asthma.
