I got a job a long ways away but my mum is going to drive with me to work every day and then come pick me up. It'll be a lot of driving for us, more so for her, but that's the plan. I will be the driver she will be the passenger. No complaints. This is what we've decided as a family and with my therapist.
Davit, Claire Weekes doesn't say she wants you to just cope she mentions in her books over and over she wants people free. I am just confused by what you're offering and what Dr. Weekes is offering. I often don't comprehend your writing style. Also, you said you never were agoraphobic so it's hard to give advice to a problem you haven't had.
I start my new job tomorrow. It is a full time job. I want to know if I have not had an attack in a very, very long time but also have not been alone for many hours for a long time outside of my home how will I react? I really like my bosses, the people seem friendly, and the atmosphere seems busy but relaxed.
I noticed my agoraphobia has been spilling over into my walking so I've been asking my dad to go on walks with me or going on walks with my dad and making them longer and longer. I am happy to say next weekend I am going to Quebec (City) with my parents and family friend and we will be doing a ton of walking there and I am looking forward to it.
Thanks Ashley that makes sense. Yes, that is something I can ask my therapist next time I speak with her or I can just email her and ask. It's just it makes no sense logically I know that driving should not bring on strong anxiety or panic symptoms. I know there is no logical reason to get so worked up just because I am driving. No logical reason at all, but when I have to drive alone outside of my comfort zone those symptoms take over and that makes no sense if I know logical they shouldn't be there.
Oh I live on my own from January to early or mid May and I was fine being on my own and yes I'll have my wonderful bosses and nice coworkers around me, so there will be people, nice people around me. I just meant I haven't been outside of my home for many hours by myself in a very long time. Like when I grocery shop I go with my neighbour.
