Which begs the question-

What type of mindsets or behaviors can having this type of emotional response lead to?

With emotionalism in the picture, particularly panic or fear, and the related symptoms ( hysteria, delusions, fight or flight reactions, ect.) one could possibly act out in error and lose control of mental faculties- just about any situation can begin to "look" suspicious. Due to the emotional state of the author I now have my doubts if events actually unfolded as reported. I do have a wonder just how much of it was imagined in a mind gripped with escalating fear.
