Hi

I wouldnt say im scared of the outdoors, but recently I ahve become more and more relucant to want to go outside,
If I have to go out, I cant be out to long and my husband has to be by my side,
He asked me to go corner shop yesterday to pick up some milk, but I freaked said no way!
When we do the weekly shopping, I can only stand to be in the supermarket for mere moments before I feel like Im trapped, I then panic, getting moaned at by my husband for being grumpy, I then proced to make as fast an exit as possiable!

Currently I have not been out for about a week now, I visited a friend last friday but other then that nope staying in is preferred,

I dont know what the hell is going on and feel an idiot for feeling this way!!!!

Hi there. I TOTALLY understand what you are feeling and what you're going through as it sounds just like you're describing me. I too struggle to go outdoors - mainly for fear of being judged, looking a somebody the 'wrong way' and just not being at ease with myself. Sometimes to try and get over this I just say to myself "sod it", I'm just going to go outside and who cares what anyone else thinks! I get so frustrated feeling the way I do!

If you need a friend or a chat please feel free to send me an email.

Take Care
Richard

Hi shadow, welcome to this website! i have very much been in your position, i was house bound for months with sad, and as an added extra every time i would have to leave the house i would begin being sick no-stop!

The worst thing for sad is giving up on it, and saying "ok you win". keep the fight going, keep having the intention to go out, start off with safe places. The supermarket is a big one for me also - Even though ive come on leaps and bounds my symptoms always go mental in supermarkets!

Imagine what it would be like without the fear, imagine doing whatever you want

I urge you to keep pushing
