Clever Cashier Saves Girl From Crippling Panic Attack With One AMAZING Trick

#1 Cordie's long since struggled with anxiety.

She hates loud, unexpected noises and a few years back, while shopping at a Cannock, England Sainsbury grocery store, her worst fear suddenly began blaring on the loud speakers.

A fire alarm test.

As her mother, Helen Martin wrote on Facebook, “Every since my daughter was little she has suffered with anxiety/panic attacks triggered by alarms/loud noises or in large environments where she is not comfortable like airports and supermarkets.”

“A few years ago she was in Sainsburys when they did a fire alarm test and it completely traumatized her. It took 2 years to get her to go back into Sainsburys and even now we have to ask if there are any schedule alarms before she will venture around the store.”

Though Helen has been diligently easing traumatized Cordie toward conquering her fear, a recent last minute shopping trip nearly pushed Cordie back over her edge…

#2 ...that was, until she met this hero.

“Today,” Helen wrote, “we went and did a bit of last minute shopping and as we were at the checkout they dimmed the lights to indicate the store was closing soon.”

“Immediately she started panicking as she thought an alarm was about to go off she wanted to run and got extremely upset. The lady working at the checkout could see something was wrong as I was trying to comfort her to allow me enough time to pay for the shopping.”

“I explained the problem and how the lights dimming had caused her to panic and she was just so lovely. She came around the checkout and asked my daughter to help her scan the shopping, coaxed her into her seat whilst we dried her tears and completely distracted her by letting her scan all the food.”

“I cannot tell you how much this meant to me and my daughter. I was overwhelmed with gratitude and emotion that she managed to turn such a negative experience into such a lovely one. My Daughter actually left smiling and was so proud of herself.”

So overwhelmed with gratitude for this cashier, Tina, and her kindness…

#3 ...mother and daughter returned to the store the following day, flowers in hand.

And ever since the story broke on the Internet, Tina, has become quite the workplace celebrity.

#4 Her good deed continues warming hearts all over the web.

As Helen noted, “Cordie’s story has gone ‘viral’ 😁 which means in Cordie’s words ‘I don’t need to go to school now as I’m famous’😂.

Famous and funny.

#5 With one simple act of kindness, this cashier transformed Cordie's trauma into triumph.

Thanks Tina, we needed this today.
