stores.. im afraid of going to them

hey,

so.. my mom just asked me if i want to get something from the store, I know if i wont, she will get mad or frustrated and tell me I dont want anything.
She always does that, when I say I can't do it. She says i should just do it and dont care about what people think, i remember another time saying no.. sorry.. andn she said omg.. why arent you going.. just go.. and she called me lazy.. argh ..

But now is the prob, i'm sick again of the thought.. being in the store.. getting stuff, and facing other people and paying at the cashier.. argh.. and cycling through that busy road.. with all the teenagers coming back from school (maybe people I know.. or bullies ::(:) I wish i could handle this, but even this makes me feel anxious, and the worst thing is, my invirement thinks im not willing to, because i dont even try, but i tried so many times, and it made me feel soo sick, i had to throw up after it, or felt like dying, hyperventilating, extremely sweating, and felt like dying around the people i saw, no no no.. ****..:( what should i do.

I know i really want to, and i know i have to do this someday for myself:p, like getting the stuff and do this every week.. (maybe everyday also) so.. yea.. but this just sucks.. wish i could feel safe around there. but i would only feel safe when the store is empty xD me alone :p getting stuff and going back.. pretty much agoraphobic isnt it? ..so yueah.. i think i will eventually do it..but maybe not :p .. Okway.. **** sa -_-

and my parents say this is the most easiest thing everrrr.. but how can i see that?? o_O..

I suffer from the same thing, when I go to the store with someone, I usually leave right before they get to the cash register and wait for them outside. Stores are so nerve racking for me, but I feel what ur saying, eventually we'll have to be able to do these things for ourselves.

I'm glad I'm not alone.. But at the same time i feel sorry for you dealing with this:(, It's sad we can't do this, and people see us as lazy, not willing to, and stupid because we cant do a simple thing like this. it's not simple at all, but i do agree with those people that its a daily basic, we should do this someday, and do it more like every week, and not avoid it so much.

Flowergirlie,

Awww sorry for hearing that:// I face on the same issues. Im not able to take care about myself. One of the reason why Bf dont stays with me. Usually go shopping womans.
Im affraid i will get bulliet in the store or they will looked me as freak. I always sweat in shop like i was running maraton, i see blury and forgot totally what i actually wanted buy. I always give me courage to saying: Common girl what is matter with u is only shop,u will do it but if im close to go i give up anyway. Sigh:/ Because i know how i panic if im in store. Im struggling there. Also i know i cant live like this forever. I know i must face it but i just cant. I dont know if i will ever can. I want so much but i cant. Is like someone hold my legs and hands behind and i push me forward but this power behind my back is stronger then me. I think also :What if i meet some one who knows me?Or someone who was smilling to me before?My hands sometimes get so uncontroled in shop that i cant find coins and if see this freakin row what is creating behind my back i feel like i will die the same by cashier with a seller even if isnt row. Yes great idea they shoul make always one shop in the city where can shoping only one person but will have 10 min on this like limit:) hehe this will be perfect. I think we should face it to this problems. We know what we should worse is practice that. I know well..
I dont have some creative advice for you right now because i alone cant do that.
I wish only step by step force u do that. Day after day will be better later. Good luck Flower i wish the best successes what u can get in future !
