Oh, sorry to hear it's a family emergency. I hope everything will be okay.
As for yourself, I have the confidence in you that you can hold down the fort, keep yourself busy doing productive things. Let me know more about the sunflowers you planted. I've had a pack of Sunflower seeds sitting in my kitchen and have yet to plant them. It's Fall in Chicago and weather is still good, think I can try planting them?. We'll have a contest as to who's can grow faster. Hint.. I do not have a green thumb 
One day at a time Danielle. You will be fine. Come to the forum anytime you need to talk. We're here for you. xx

You're right i can do this, I've learn a lot in therapy. And you should definitely try planting them, i have no idea what im doing but im exited to see how it will turn out 🌻🌻

The not knowing will prove to you how capable and strong you are to care take of things on your own. We all possess that strength, even with anxiety, when called upon. xx

Thanks Danielle but know that it's not me. I'm just guiding people by my own experiences the rest is up to you.
I'm sitting here right now contemplating planting the Sunflower seeds. I think I read once that those are almost impossible to not come out. We'll see. I may need your support on that 
xx
It's great that you're keeping yourself busy, try meditation or writing that usually help

I pm you mine
4 days will past before you know it
You can do this. Think of how good it will be to get through the next couple of days on your own.
You are a strong person and you know you can do this and that you will be okay.
Take it one hour at a time and just go through the routines you would normally do.
Good to see you keeping yourself busy that is good.
Take care.

I got so close today i could actually see the park but i didn't make it. When i turned around and couldn't see my house it hit me how far i am from my safe zone it all went downhill from there
Agora1• in reply to
Been there as well. Concentrate on what you accomplished by getting out and not having gone out of your safety zone. Actually you did better than I ever did when first starting out by myself. For me it was needing to know someone was at home so that I could venture out of my comfort zone.
Don't let this bring you down. You are in day 2 Half way there xx
