Is it normal to be frightened after witnessing a car crash

I nearly witnessed a car crash and was triggered to a point where I had so many what if thoughts that I didn't want to go back to work and wanted to be near my kids. I was worried it could have been someone I knew and even thought what if that was me and my kids in the wreck and was almost in tears thinking about it.

I'm a sissy 1
I'm worrying to much 1
It is normal to think "what if that was me in the crash" 14

    Sounds like you had an anxiety attack, which is normal; but don't let it drive you crazy or control your life, because the car crash didn't happen, your family is fine, and you're okay.
