Being essential is something we tend to struggle with. You are a background character in someone else's story. Do you agree? Unfortunately for you I do not. Everyone is apart of their own slice of life tv show, with chapters and paragraphs of ups and downs. Everyone is always reaching for their chance to become essential, but they do this to become important in another persons life, not their own. Why is that? It is quite peculiar in the idea that one is willing to go so far to be noticed by someone else. Have you ever sat down and simply... noticed yourself? 
I do not consider myself somebody who feels bad? I find it quite fun to cause others feel grief, but not in the sadistic way you may be thinking, no, but in a way that causing sadness and intensity in the small things so... exhilarating. I want to make somebody cry. I want to make somebody scream. I want somebody to understand the sharp stabbing and sickening guilt that somebody can experience. 
I almost called this story Reach. Was it because of the cover image? No. I simply wanted it to be Reach due to the idea of someone panicking. Panicking? What does this have to do with panicking? THE IDEA.... the looks that I have gotten. As someone who has experienced acting and not in the movie way, but as an actor on a stage, you need to really exaggerate how you feel or it will never REACH the audience. In a movie someone who may be experiencing panic may be portrayed(with it zoomed in on them) of them staring off and maybe disassociating? Yet on stage far from the eyes of your witnesses you must reach out, as if wanting to grab something that does not really exist. Almost as if you are reaching for the space in front of you. But why? Gripping. Scratching. Grasping. Snatching. Why?
I ended up deleting a paragraph due to this being to long. Ha.
