ANXIATY ABOUT LEAVING TODAY, THURS AUG 21, 2015 2 P.M.
I AM GOING OUT TODAY WITH MY AUNT WHO I LOVE, WE ARE GOING TO THE STORE AND I NEED TO GET OUT AND GET SOME AIR. I AM TRYING SO HARD TO BE POSITIVE, BUT IT'S HARD WHEN I HAVE TO LEAVE THE HOUSE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG W/ME ABOUT LEAVING. NEED TO TAKE MY MEDS BEFORE I GO. GETTING IN SHOWER IN A MIN, WANTED TO JOURNAL ABOUT MY ANXIATY. NOT WASHING MY HAIR TODAY, IT'S SO LONG AND SO HARD AND TAKES FOREVER TO WASH SO I'M JUST GOING TO PUT A HAT ON, IT'S NOT REAL HOT BUT I BURN VERY EASY. OK SHAKING RIGHT NOW, BUT IT'S GONG TO BE OK, IT'S GOING TO BE OK. I WONT BE ALONE FOR VERY LONG. IT JUST TAKES ME SOOO LONG TO ACTUALLY GET OUT OF THE PLACE ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY. SON'S TEETH ARE SO BAD HE CAN HARDLY EAT ANYTHIG ANYMORRE, I CAN'T EVEN TYPE, NEED TO GO TAKE MY MED AND GET IN SHOWER, MORE LATEER, STILL TRYING W/ THE POSITIVE BUT THIS IS REALLY GOING TO BE A TEST TODAY IFEAR. OK

Listen to me---you can do it, it\'s not that hard. Push yourself. I had a counselor tell me once \"whenever you are feeling down and depressed--GO OUTSIDE\" and Yep, she was right. It was hard GETTING out, but once I was out (especially in nature) I was much better. Keep that in mind---the four walls really do close in on you. Your friend, Maria
Yes i know you are right, i have what i call stage one agoraphobia. Have more but i\'m going to journal about it, Hug\'s to you my very good friend. Laurie xo
