This picture is what happens to me when I go into a busy grocery store and I fear that I would not last long enough to get what I need and make it to the check out. No one GETS THAT. I don't particularly WANT or Choose to experience this either.
Hypervigilance affects me too. It's certainly not a choice. Some grocery stores have online ordering and then you either just go to the store to pick it up or they deliver. Maybe that's something you want to look into until your husband is back.
