Bad Days

[fallenwing]

I was having a good start to the day, I challenged my agoraphobia and took a walk all the way to the medical center (I have an appointment I'm nervous about tomorrow). I ended up getting stuck in a nervous cycle trying to eat dinner over going to my appointment. It's hard when you can't explain to your friends that you're terrified and wish they were near to help you. This all hurts especially since my social anxiety stops me from making really tight friendships...

Hi I also have severe anxiety and very bad agorophobia. I didn't leave my apt all summer unless totally necessary. Food Drs appt etc. Im living in Hell!! I'm trying to get assistance animal right now to help me get out. If I get sick of being inside I can only go walk if its dark outside. I have no life! I don't know how bad your agorophobia is but I totally understand how bad anxiety can be!! Sorry your dealing with it too!

Thank you! I'm glad I'm not alone dealing with this illness, especially since I dread even leaving the house to see my therapist. I hope you can get your assistance animal!

Oh me too! I was at Drs office a few weeks ago and one person besides me and I went into anxiety attack!!! I just wanted to forget my appt and run back home and hide!!!😬😬 Thanks about the dog. Waiting for approval or denial is killing me emotionally and physically even. I can't stop worrying. Hugs

You can do it, I believe in you! Ever since venting here and to some friends I feel relieved of some of my anxiety about this appointment 💖
