Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another.

My family is telling me that I am just going to have to get up and get busy doing something in the house or go to a friends or just get out of the house. I just feel like they don't understand.

I just feel like I'm letting everyone down here at Christmas if I go in the hopital. I can't stand feeling like this!
It is hard for our family to understand something they have never gone through themselves.
Sweets, try not to be so hard on yourself. I know, easier said than done.
If your therapist said you need inpatient care. I tend to lean toward what she truley believes is best for you. They really want the best for us.
Try not to worry so much about letting everyone down. The Holiday's are hard on their own. You have to focus on *you* and getting better, otherwise your not going to be strong enough for anyone else. It's about you sweets. You're family will come around. This kind of stuff takes time. And in the inpatient atmosphere, they have what I believe is called something like co-op's which is one on ones with your family and a therapist. To help them understand what you are going through. It is optional, of corse. But something to think about.
A big hug to you and take good care of you.
All my best~
