I want to hide. I don't want to be anywhere. I have a job and I make it there. I don't want to talk or have anyone talk to me. This is getting so much worse. I am tired of dealing with everything.

I also know the feeling... Make sure you reward yourself for gettin to work... That is a vey huge accomplishment... I have lost many a job from this very feeling... So do something nice for yourself... Indulge in a treat or something just because you are totally worth it... Don't feel bad that you want to isolate, it is a normal reaction to stress and PTSD... Make sure you enjoy those moments you do have at home... Languish a little longer in the bath or whatever relaxes you and recharge yourself the next time you have to battle the great outdoors (getting to work and back in one piece!!!) my thoughts are with you, and I'm so sorry you are going through this now...!!! :) sending you my support...!!!

Certainly an issue I deal with every day, too.

For the last decade, when I went anywhere without my wife, I would freak out, even to work. How does one reward themselves for doing everyday things?
While we are not alone in this, it still feels like it. Especially when over ones stop caring.
If you want to talk, I'm here.

I agree with 51% and Mujica. Couldn't have said it any better.
