You're agoraphobic like her?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

No but when I’m going through a rough patch in my depression or anxiety I do use vid calls instead of going to family gatherings etc x

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I'm thankful for video chats i can help pick things out even if i can't be there personally

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Yeah its great x

I understand! This is like being on house arrest or something. I wonder what have I done to be punished. Missing out on so much, my children too...But it's just all in my head right. And I just need to get my head right! Good luck 😊🎄

[Hidden in reply to Kaez]

It definitely feels that way, it's a sad thing to not be able to assist in a lot of things. You feel like you're in chains in your own house

[Kaez in reply to Hidden]

Im just so scared Im going to have an attack in public where I cant get away, and I will be mortified to the point of a heart attack. I know how that must sound but ugh, its how I feel. I wouldn't wish that feeling on anyone...

[Hidden in reply to Kaez]

Trust me that was me, i was in that exact same place, i still can't go far but its not as bad as before, i use to have an attack just by walking to the sidewalk.

[Kaez in reply to Hidden]

Howd you start getting better?

[Hidden in reply to Kaez]

Since i couldn't leave my house my stepdad got me a therapist who specialized in people with agoraphobia so i started with home sessions, before trying to go outside i had to get better mentally meaning digging deep to the root, start from the past to find out what made me fear the outside so much, then we started taking little trips first i would try to make it past the door it took me a lot of time and panic attacks and tons of crying to make it to that mailbox.

[Kaez in reply to Hidden]

Thank you for sharing! Home sessions sound great.

[Hidden in reply to Kaez]

You'll get there hun trust me, it's hard and hurtful but you'll get there just start really slow, i even had a few members here who i use to talk to while walking to help me stay calm, with people like us a big suppot system is everything
