Agoraphobia

I have 1 friend, my roommate. She does everything for me as I don’t leave the house. So between my anxiety, depression and agoraphobia, my days are long, sad and full of anxiety. I have been in therapy for awhile and I’m not getting any better.

Hi Dallas Cowboys -

I've been stuck in this bed twelve years now. I feel I'd rather step in front of a Firing Squad than even Think of going out.

When the day comes you go out and you don't Hate it, I want to be the first to know.

I just don't see how I can go out myself, I hate it all with such a passion.

You're roomie is such a sport to help you in so many ways, all without complaint and not judging you as not trying, as others without our illnesses foolishly think.

Write me back!! Even if things are Not going well.

Your friend,

Chris

Hi! Thank you for sharing your story! Are you seeing a virtual therapist? If you don’t have one, mine is the best! I have agoraphobia but I think yours is more advanced. Do you know what put you in the house 12 years ago? I am afraid to go out because I don’t think I’m worth being out there. I’m afraid to get a job I’m afraid of people and just being away from my space where I have control. My anxiety is crippling as is my depression. I take meds and thank goodness for that. I hope we can stay in touch! And you will be the 3rd person to know, I promise!

Try and keep your head up and know that I am here for you!!!!
