With my moderate claustrophobia I’m perfectly safe. I wouldn’t go in that thing alone for five minutes, with the door closed, on dry land, let alone a couple miles down, locked in with four other people

Me either.

I went inside a WWII submarine at the USS Alabama Battleship Park in Mobile, Alabama. It was terrifyingly claustrophobic inside.................

Back in 1969, my parents took me to Disneyland. I had a Disneyland picture book, prior to the trip, so it was my goal to take the submarine ride. Well, that’s how I first learned of the word “claustrophobia”, cuz my poor dad made them stop that ride short so that he could get off! Now, as an adult, I can sympathize. No thanks!

I think how you feel is actually a perfectly normal human aversion to being trapped in a closed space. I did, however, complete the Disneyland submarine ride without issue!
