Agoraphobia

My Triggers
Things that can really set me off (well, some of them): Loud noises, bright lights, hot weather, country music, organized religion, being alone, death/dying. That stuff gives me huge anxiety. I have been leaving the house for about 9 months now. Still not driving, but at least I am getting out and going to doct... 16 Sep 2007 16:51

Agoraphobia and Working at Home
I'm just curious if any of you have tried any type of work at home job to bring in some much need money? If so, was it hard for you to do? What type of work was it? Did you work full or part time? If it was a Customer Service type job, did you have to supply your own equipment. Computer, high speed inter... 17 Sep 2007 15:49

Friday
Hello Everyone :-) I hope today was a good day for all of you. It was a good but busy day for me. Did anything positive happen for you today? My most positive thing for me other than getting out of my apartment today was talking to a good friend on the phone. I am usually too nervous to talk to almost anyo... 19 Sep 2007 15:21

How Was YOUR Day? (Vent Time!)
Hi Everyone, My day was not the best! GRRRRRR! I went the rounds for several hours via email with one of the state workers who I thought was going to help me get my financial assistance reinstated and extended until my SSDI is approved. WRONG!!! He said my time was up and there was nothing he could do about i... 13 Sep 2007 01:08

Just Wondering...
Do you ever have times when you feel like a millions things are going through your mind at the same time? As I said in an earlier post, today has been a very stressful day and I am still having a hard time settling down enough to sleep. Do any of you lose your concentration and/or forget things easily? What ... 9 Sep 2007 16:00

Coping
I have been agoraphobic for many years, and sometimes it's really frustrating. It can be a great day with family or friends, and then, W H A M ...feelings come over me, and I have to get right home. I start sweating and breathing funny and feel like I am going to lose control or maybe die. It can be outside in th... 7 Sep 2007 23:31

Come ride with me...
Graffnoir, you said don't reply, so I'll post a new thread :) It is about riding, you will like it. Although, I think you will like it even better when I add links to the images tomorrow night, or more likely later since riding makes my pain levels skyrocket the next day :/ Annnyways. It has been an awfully d... 2 Sep 2007 20:37

Hello :-) How are you all doing this first day of September? I do hope your day is going well whatever you may be doing. Yesterday was not a good day for me but I survived it.
