haven't been to the cinema for 14 years

Hi, 

I haven't been to the cinema for a very long time,due to all sorts of reasons. I feel like society expects you to go and feel a bit pressured into going. Do loads of people go,or is it just my imagination and I'm making myself go,just to follow the crowd? I would only ever go by myself-less pressure and only ever mid week-less people! Problem is,I haven't been for so long, can you leave halfway through if you get anxious? I remember in America,years ago,a cinema was bombed...is that likely to happen again?

    I don't recall any bombs in cinemas last year so the odds are very very heavily in your favour Smile

    I saw the Stephen Hawking film last month and enjoyed that as, among other intersting parts of the film, he is quite clearly well down the autistic spectrum and also terribly disabled by his motor neuron disease and yet has been very successful in his life. Quite inspirational but probably a bit much for a trial excursion like yours. That was my first trip in probably 10 years but my non attendance is more about not being excited by a lot of what is on.
