I am very new here. But I have debilitating anxiety and am talking to a counselor about agoraphobia. Fear of leaving the house. I am not physically disabled but I have shut most people out and have a very hard time going anywhere. In a way I am relieved my car needs a new engine.
Even though the reasons are completely different. I am wasting my life away because of my own anxiety. So what do we do when everyone stops coming around... We must force our selves out there in a way and find or repaire friend ships and support groups. They tell me I am worth it. But it is much easier for me to see that you are so worth being here. Find a local group. **
I met a friend in my neighborhood online and she is very social. I am starting to like having here around because she comes over anyway and makes me interact with people she knows. And it is not so scary just going 2 miles down the road vs. all the way into town.

You are so worth it. You may not have "normal" any more but you have something. Use this forum too. Reach out to some one and have them come over and visit. Call some one if the phone wont ring.

Now go look in the mirror and tell your self you are worth it. Some times this helps me and I go put on some make up or blow dry my hair nice. And some times you have to fake it until you make it.

But you are always worth it.
