Imagine you're at a party and there are so many people, it's like everyone is shouting at the same time. That makes your brain feel confused and worried, just like when you’re playing hide-and-seek and someone finds you before you’re ready! This feeling of being nervous in crowded places is because your brain thinks something unexpected might happen.
Examples
- A child feels nervous at the playground when there are many kids running around.
- You feel anxious at the supermarket during holiday rush hour.
