Is it normal to want to hide?

Whenever I'm stressed I want nothing more then to curl up into a ball and hide in the tightest place possible. People look at me weird when I say I need to hide in a hole but that's literally what I want to do. I need to find someplace small and dark where I can curl up and present I don't exist. I kind of feel like a rabbit when it happens I can't be in the open. If there is more then one entrance I panic because something could get me ( no idea what I'm hiding from). Is this normal? Does anyone else want to do this?

    Yeah. It's part of anxiety, you have to face your fears and it is difficult. I had to see a therapist but some can manage without
