@MJG017 yeah maybe one day I'll get lucky to not have to rebuild again. 

 

I need to vent. 

 

I just went to the shops and of course my anxiety was high so most of the time was spent trying to hide the fact that I was having a panic attack. Anyway I was wearing my sunflower lanyard (hidden disability) and had my ear buds in to drown the world out. I went into a shop and walked in with my handbag on my back and a shopping bag on my arm with 3 small things in it, I brought 3 things in this shop and after paying for them and going to head out the security guard stopped to bag check me, but he didn't just have a quick look, he made me empty out the bag, show him both receipts including for the things that he just watched me purchase and he checked every little detail then he made me show him the contents of my handbag. I was shocked, like I've been bag checked plenty of times but not like this, I was completely embarrassed and felt it was an invasion of my privacy. Actually thinking about emailing the company as it was not necessary to do what he did to me. Thoughts on this?
