To the man dancing slowly at ABS8LUTE

[panic4eva]

You're a man in maybe your late 30s or early 40s. I am a woman in my 30s there with my boyfriend. I was getting very anxious, but you started dancing with me. Instead of moving at every beat, you moved every 4 beats in this slow, flowing, serene manner. I could feel how relaxed you were. You brought me into your circle of calm as we danced for a minute together. You stopped me from having a full-blown panic attack, and since that moment, I've been able to create and return to that same headspace/energy field you gifted me - even now, after Fusion. I ended up having the most transformative time at ABS8LUTE's set, because of what you taught me, and because I was able to let myself go to the (amazing) music. Thank you for gifting me something so precious, as I've been struggling with anxiety my whole life. I hope you read this, and I hope you recognize yourself.

Hi, can you describe the "slow dancer" in terms of his phenotype, what he was wearing, face features ...I think this makes it easier for anyone, to identify with (or not) with the situation you are describing
Thank you & Peace

Hi, I think I really saw myself in your description!

I had this crazy moment on this et from Absolute where I felt like I could control time. I have to admit—I was quite high on K at the timeand I had this wild feeling that I could slow down or speed up the music inside my head.
I also felt these insane connections to the people dancing around me—like we were vibrating on the same frequency..
If I was that guy you mentioned, I’m truly happy that this behavior helped you get through panic attacks.

Selfishly though, I have to admit that for me it was mostly the drug and that completely surreal feeling that carried me through the moment.
But I'm not insensitive to what you felt. I get it

I’m just more the kind of guy who totally lets go in moments like that—who dives fully into the pure sensation of being here and now. No tomorrow, no past, no thoughts tying me down, no emotional baggage—just presence.

Just that raw, unfiltered now.
