Have dealt with social anxiety/panic disorder/agoraphobia most of my life. Am at a point where I'm able to lead a fairly 'normal' life, able to get out to get my shopping, doctor and dentist appts. and so on. As long I'm not too far away from home or am gone too long I'm okay.
Parties and social gatherings are quite hard for me but I am getting better at it. What I find bothers me the most is when people ask where I work. I no longer have kids at home so can't say I'm a stay at home anymore. I know people are just trying to make conversation but I always feel inferior even though I keep very busy. Any one else in this situtaion, how do you handle it?
