Did you buy the HH yet? You can make your own hammock with cheap fabric, then try it out with a tarp in your back yard or car camping. If claustrophobia is a big problem, then I would do this before throwing the money at an HH.

I don't get claustrophobic, so I can't comment on that. But, a blanket and tarp are better for it than a mummy and tent, I think.

Good luck.
