Do claustrophobia and scuba diving go together?

momo asked:


So I joined my schools scuba diving program. I get claustrophobic when being under water. I just don’t feel write that I am breathing underwater. What can I do to keep me more relaxed before I start?

      Well make sure to breath. This relaxes your muscles. Also remember that scuba diving is fun and try to make the experience a good one. If you do get claustrophobic, it natural to feel the same under water. As claustrophobia is also related to the lack air in the environment around. Just remember you’ve got oxygen and breath. When you start you’ll probably be thinking about your breathing and then as you get use to being underwater it’ll become second nature.
