Thank you I'm really hoping I start to get the anxiety under control taking babysteps but hopefully soon I will be confident enough to go back to work..

Keeping yourself socially active and meeting new people is a very helpful therapy for overcoming anxiety. It's very easy to become homebound so everything you do to get out in the world is a good idea. That you also have the reward of helping others is a nice bonus. Have a good time 😊

Thank you! It does help it's not really new people but still a step out of the house! And it's good exercise!
