I went to the store today....I HATE GOING OUT !

Posted on 10/17/09, 12:37 pm
Hello everyone... I went out to the store this morning, I go early , as NOT to see and talk to so many people. It did NOT go well. the girl at the bank could tell something was wrong with me... I was very anxious/nervous/stressed and I can't seem to stand still, And then the cab/taxi driver, started asking me a hundred & one questions and that just makes me crazy,more stressed... I was trying to be polite/nice but inside I was thinking get me the heck home, just shut up , drive , GET me HOME NOW ! ! ! I hate being this way, My doctor said it would get better, but it's NOT ! I thought if I start talking or posting about it, maybe this will help. I can't go on like this, It drains me of all my energy. And when on top of all this my nasty neighbors ,"ALL" come running out side to stand ,stare, and talk about me,....No wonder I don't want to go out, I have social anxiety and on top of that I have a 'prevert 'that follows me everywhere I go and then my nasty/nosey neighbors... HOW am I suppose to get better ? Thanks for letting me vent ! I Hope you will NOT think I'am crazy or be judgemental.....HUGS .

    Good job for going to the store! It's so difficult sometimes, but now you're back at home, safe again, and you can relax. And seeing as you have supplies now, you can enjoy the comfort of your own home a little while longer before thinking about going out again. Good job for going out!
