I have told my family that I’ll show up for Christmas Eve dinner tonight. I haven’t left my house in over a year due to anxiety/agoraphobia. Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can just Go over there? I do not want to disappoint my family.

Open your door and head out, no danger awaits you there. Yes, you'll feel very uncomfortable on the journey but accept the bad feelings, I said accept the bad feelings, and if your legs feel like they're turning to jelly don't worry, jelly legs will always get you there and back.
Hi, if you can focus on the love and kindness of the Christmas 🎄 season instead of your anxiety, I believe you can do it.Make a plan for how to leave if you need to. If you can contact the host before you arrive, you might be able to confirm that you are staying for x amount of time before moving on to your next get together. A small fib but it's good for you 😉

It'll be ok. You'll see.
Sorry, my reply is late. I hope you were able to go and enjoy yourself. This will be a first step in recovery.
