Thought i’d go at quiet time with hubby for a hot chocolate but cafe too noisy for me and sitting outside too noisy. Mind racing, anxiety overwhelming. Went to buy some special lemon curd, picked a jar for my dad too. By the time i got home i had to go to bed to lay down, my anxiety was through the roof and freezing and mind racing. I can’t cope with very much at all its been this way for years now, i end up being at home all the time

That’s awful. Maybe because you don’t get out much. Maybe you should just plan short easy trips. Maybe your anxiety will go down.

My anxiety is even like this for short trips
I really can’t handle going out at all @devra
I’m best staying in as much as possible because it sends my mind bad going out
I was sat drinking outside, my mind was racing with bad thoughts of being attacked by MI5 or a terrorist

He’s recovering but his throat is still sore after surgery for his laryngeal papilliomatosis. It turns out he doesn’t have copd. And he’s completely quit the cigs for a couple of weeks, i can tell he’s serious about not smoking anymore. Just have to keep cutting down myself. I’ll keep trying to quit.
Thanks for asking
