Mega ship intimidation

All I have ever sailed on is the medium classes of ship (Freedom of the Seas, Mariner of the Seas, couple of Carnival ships about the same size).  I know over time these smaller classes will be a thing of the past.  I think about how the Oasis class is 40% bigger than the Freedom class and it makes me feel uneasy a bit, almost nervous.  Have any of you had a hard time going from the convenience of the smaller ships to the HUGE ships?  I have a hard time with extreme crowds (like concerts and shopping malls during the holidays).  Do the mega ships have that extreme crowd feel?  I usually cruise during times when school is in session to avoid some of that.  What are some of your experiences and thoughts on going from a smaller ship to a mega ship?

I haven’t read the rest of the responses but... I really feel you about crowds. I hyperventilated trying to watch PitBull on NYE. I had Black Friday shopping and in general I don’t like festivals either. But I love the oasis class ships. Being bigger means people are MORE spread out. Less lines. More planes to go without people. I love it. I now feel claustrophobic on the smaller ships
