I barely leave my home.
I will venture outside to go to doctors appointments and will help my father take my mom to day care twice a week.
Occasionally I will go to a store with my dad.
Are you guys homebodies too?
I have Agoraphobia also.

I’ve gotten to where I hate leaving the house.
It just makes me so anxious.
My husband wants to go on a date tonight and I don’t even want to do that.

I’m very similar. I’m agoraphobic/socially anxious. I always think I’m going to embarrass myself, even though my gf says I never do.

I usually stay around the house as well. I have social anxiety but I do manage to get out every week or so.

Hi wave. Today is one of those days here. If you get out walk around in the yard would help. I paced outside.

I’m the same I just stay home unless I have to go shopping. It’s lonely and boring.

I took a very short walk down my street.
At least it’s something.

Drs appointments, grocery shopping and if I take Ativan the occasional outing, but that’s it. I just can’t handle the anxiety anymore. But I’m working on it. My husband really wants me to be more social so we can do more things. I see how easy it is for him to talk to people when we are out and about and I get envious, and everyone loves him. It’s just not easy for me.

When you go out do you get really overwhelmed and then your head feels like it’s getting all noisy and you can’t think straight anymore?

I just feel really uneasy.
I can’t explain it but I feel unsafe.
I’m afraid of everything.

That’s the way I am exactly. I only leave my room to go to day treatment from 8:00 am to 2:15 pm. I spend almost all the rest of my time in my room.

I’ve been feeling the same way.
I work, lounge, have my tea.
Only weekends I am actually leaving the house. Even though we had good weather this week. I don’t want to do much. I’m really loving isolating myself for days.

Me too it is a torture to go outside. I feel like going crazy and that they are all actors.

I have generalized anxiety about going out. I will be able to handle it with the help of my meds, but up until leaving I will resist going out. I’m a definite homebody.

I don’t like to go out, just because of how uncomfortable people try to make your life.
