Open water dive time....
Woke up this morning already in a panic...why on earth was i going diving!! I pulled it together though and got in the taxi to the pier and onto the boat. 1st step done. We set up the equipment and got kitted up, move to the back of the boat ready to jump. Hello panic. Did i really want to do this?... I did anyway. Once i was in i felt surprisingly calm but then it was time to go down. I seem to really struggle with going down and keeping myself straight. The whole 1st dive i spent panicking about breathing, having a foggy and slightly foggy mask. So didnt actually take in anything around me. Took a trip to the surface which can be dangerous, so obviously that set the panic radars going. It is safe to say i didnt really enjoy it. Getting back on the boat i really didnt think diving was for me, the thought of going down again was petrifying me. This is when i thought diving would stop for me. I dont know where i got it from but i foind the confidence and courage to go for the 2nd dive. Lord help me. Surprisingly better than the first apart from the moment where i floated to the top AGAIN and couldnt get back down. Another panic. But i made it alive to the srface and back on the boat. Ready for roundd 2 tomorow. Just 2 more and then if i want i dont have to do it again. They say do something everyday that scares you...i can definitely say i have.
