  1. I went to london film and comic con today. First major con in a while, my anxiety was at a all time high due to large crowds and the like. The staff and crew where wondeful showing me where to get my extra help pass and showing me some slighty quiter spots when needed. They where also brilliant when it came to seeing John Barowman and Gareth David Lloyd this afternoon even though i was nervous wreck. I think(Ben ) his name was one of the crew gave me a high five and told me how well i was doing which gave me a boost.

    When i got to the shoot itself i was a mess . John and Gareth though saved it and asked if i was ok ! To which i muttered a very nervous yes and john gave me a quick hug and they both helped me pose for the photo ! They where brilliant  and John was chatty to , even after already haveing done several shoots during the day.

    One thing you can both do, when you have gotten inside and have your bearings and any VQ's you may need if you want auto's from other guests, is to take a moment to have a wander around the venue looking for quieter bits.  Now space and quite can be hard to come by but there's always somewhere as there's usually a bit of the balcony where there may be less stalls/people or an odd corner.  If you note where they are you know where to pop back to if you need some space.  Or find out which way the exit is and pop outside (remembering to get your hand stamped so you can get back in).  I do recall they said they intended to use part of the entry hall as a chill out area after everyone has gone in so you can try there as well.

    Thank you so much , i am lucky to have to very good friends supporting me on the day , my best freind has the litreal patiance of a saint and has manged to get me to the oint where im like i can do this because like meeting a guest like John/Gareth is a goal and i know when i have manged to do it i will be proud and its why i picked those two as i have had freinds who have met them and said there lovley ppeole to meet

    One thing to know is that you are not alone feeling like you are so don't worry about asking questions on here or seeking help when there. Im autistic and this will be my first comic con and I feel terrified of the thought of being in a new place surrounded by people and having to get to numerous places in time but my desire to meet Tom Ellis has got me taking the step and despite being massively nervous, Im actually really excited :wub:

    Theres loads of info in the threads on this board to help you prepare, Ive spent ages reading as much as I could and asking questions when not sure. The people on here have been so helpful and supportive

    Hope you have a great time at LFCC :smile: 

    So nice to find someone else who understands this , i was gonna just meet John but im getting the double shoot with him and Gareth know! I will do this like even some of my friends have said there proud im trying >

     

    I hope you have an amazing time would be nice to see u there to i am only there sunday though

    When booking your photo, select the lowest available batch, and as you can get your photo anytime after your batch has been called, you can still get your photo in the afternoon slot.

    You are a saint ! Like i have anxiety and things so this is a huge step for me actually wanting to meet someone is a huge step but i dont wanna book and miss it but knowing as long as my batch has been called i can still go to the photo op and get it done is so helpful! 

     

    Thank you again like im so damn nervous for this
