" its not rambling, the fear can overpower person wheter person is intelectual or not, and no matter how much you are aware that there is no actual danger around you, fear still can overpower person

hope you will get your fear under some control "

" Yes,pretty much felt the same way this past weekend,not even wanting to go out to meet some friends! I've just felt so emotionally drained,like someone is physically stepping on me like an ant! I truly dread that it is heading for fall considering it doesn't get any better this time of year! I'm just hoping and praying that I can find a way to break this funk very soon! Just wanted to let you know you're not alone! "

" That happens to me alot. I never know when it's going to creep up on me. Sometimes I will actually be somewhat excited about getting out of the house (but never alone mind you) and then all of the sudden there it is and I can't go! It's so frustraiting. My husband is not supportive AT ALL, so if I cancel plans at the last minute he gets so upset. I tell him I can't help it but he doesn't understand!.. Hopefully this is just a minor set back or bump in the road and it will pass.

" I know what you mean. I feel the same way a lot. It's like i am uncomfortable going out and doing things, yet I want to go and have fun and enjoy myself. I just don't have anyone to really do anything with. My boyfriend, when not working, just likes to stay home and play his computer games. So it can get pretty boring for me and nerve racking since I tend to ruminate and worry about everything and why I don't do the things I want. "
