What do you refuse to do?

Name something you absolutely won't do because of anxiety,depression,mania,etc.

I will NEVER drive in the snow and I won't drive on the highway when it's raining. My anxiety gets the best of me when it comes to both. No amount of therapy or meds will ever change my mind on this.

My boyfriend,family, and friends are all very understanding of my fear and I manage to get around in the winter thanks to them. I will ride in the car just can't drive myself.

I refuse to become a doormat for my Gran. It is difficult trying to maintain my own boundaries, but so far so good! :)

I can't drive on the highway at all. It's so frustrating cuz I have major panic attacks if I do and actually have to pull over on the highway.

I refuse to go to the mall. Too many people and too much walking and it freaks me out!

I refuse to deal with the desires of any sociopaths.
I refuse to stand for Israel.
I equally refuse to stand for Hamas.

And in other news, I refuse to go on any rollercoasters and high places.

I don't walk in the dark, or even sleep in the dark unless my husband is with me.

All of the things I won't do are just personal choices for me. I won't do anything that I know is going to harm the environment, people or animals.

I will never, ever speak to a group of people or a crowd.
I would rather die a thousand deaths. I don't know how people do it!!

pretend I'm happy when I'm not; pretend I'm interested in something when I'm not, but I really try to be polite and endure for a little while- it's hard though!
