How many of you don't get out of the house almost all the time?
2

A couple times a week typically, once to go to classes and another day to buy groceries.

I leave my apartment to go to day treatment every day. I rarely leave the auspices of my assisted living residence, though. I don’t leave them for months at a time.

It’s been stiflingly hot lately, but I still go out when needed. Yesterday I needed to buy groceries for the house, so I did that and then I run errands for my mom who cannot drive atm. I avoid bars etc. lately I havent had interest in various social gatherings because I have found myself on the outside of some social groups on the flip side I have reconnected with a few friends and I have applied to college.

I just have to get out of my house at least once or more times a day depending on what I need to get or do for others I care for. But I’d say I leave this place mostly when I’m dreaming. I like my shelter here. I don’t have an AC so it can get pretty warm in the summer, but it allows me to save money and to always have fresh air and nature sounds to listen to. Traffic is bad at times with garbage truck noises because of the strip mall I live behind.

I chose every 2 weeks as I will go out within that time period usually for my depot. Occasionally I’ll go out more frequently but not often. I would go out more often if (a) I had somewhere to go to (b ) I had someone to go out with .

I’m used to leaving daily…I’m also living with two people who drive me nutty…But, neighborhood is really annoying so rarely stay outside much any more with all the crazy vocals off the neighborhood kids & weirdos. I used to live in next neighborhood over for decade, it was quieter - the poorer people won’t sass someone older so badly unless the place has gang stalking problems. This new neighborhood is middle class kids with nothing to worry about as parents take care of them as dependents…

I have a job, I go out every day.

Even if I didn’t have a job, I get claustrophobic… so I would have to go out anyway.

I get my groceries delivered so no longer have to go shopping. I usually go to church and out for lunch afterward. And sometimes I also go out once more…I used to go to the pharmacy but now no longer have to do that—we’re getting that delivered as well. Occasionally I will go out for breakfast with my case manager… i don’'t really mind going out of the house but it is getting very hard for me physically to go out. I’m in a lot of pain when I walk and it’s too much of a PIA to bring my wheelchair…I do occasionally have an MD appt. also.

I’m in a small minority and didn’t realise it. 85% leave the house at least every few days. I only leave the house about once a month.

I over though this question. “Leave the house” well… sometimes I don’t physically step foot outside for days. Then I might go a couple of days not venturing off the side porch or back yard before I go out into the real world to do errands or school.
