The last time I volunteered I had a horrible panic attack and almost started crying. So I'm glad I got myself to go back again, which is usually the hardest part going back somewhere you had a bad panic attack. It's a lot of pressure because they get busy fast and there's a lot of people that need to be served quickly. But I did it. I'll go back again and do another shift in a couple weeks from now. So far I've got 8 hours of volunteer time. 6 of those hours have been in the past month. I'm trying to get up to 20 hours at least. No particular reason. I don't have to. I just want to get experience so I can get a part time job sometime
