This is a tough situation, to say the least! Being thrust into something that you might feel that you're not ready for can be very scary. Some kind of support would be an asset, for sure. Maybe you are right, that being forced into this will lead to the recovery that you need, but I know that doesn't help your fears any. Something that I find true for me is that thinking about something usually always is worse than actually doing it. I can get myself all worked up about something and then when I do it, it wasn't nearly as bad as I had thought. Fear of the unknown is the worst kind of fear. Use this time now to plan and think of ways to make yourself more comfortable. Got out and get food and the things that you'll need. Being prepared will help you to have more confidence. Let us know how you're doing, I know this is very hard, and you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Hi Suzanne,
Thanks for the reply. I have a wonderful GP that I have been seeing once a week for the last several months. He understands anxiety but believes it is only treatable by meds- I think I need some type of therapy as well as the meds, but that's another story. I also have a psychiatrist but I don't generally find him all that helpful. I guess there are people who could partially fill the role of my parents but I would never burden someone as much as I do my parents. I would be too embarrassed. I am just scared that I will be in my apartment not eating and being scared for 3 whole weeks and I don't know if I could stand that! :8o: On the other hand, maybe I will recover since I kind of need a push to get myself back to living a somewhat normal life- so who knows- it could be great, it could be hell. I guess time will tell.
Thanks again,
Sarah
Dear Sarah,
This situation is a tough one. My suggestion is this; you have about two weeks until your parents go away (it's time to start mentally preparing yourself). Is there anyone who could possibly fill their roll while they are away. I think it is good for you to attempt to go home, but I do think you need someone available to you if you need it. Are you under the care of a doctor? Perhaps if you told your doctor about the situation, they might be able to give you some tools to get you through this. Let me know.

I didn't really know where to post this topic- I guess this is kind of a specific situation though so here goes: As I've said in other posts, I have moved back in with my parents and have been living with them now ever since my breakdown 3 months ago. I have kept my apartment though with the hopes of returning to it. But I always chicken out. Anyways, my parents are planning to go away on vacation for 3 weeks starting Jan. 24- I will likely go back to my own place because it is so much closer to town and I live nearby grcery stores and stuff and my parents live kind of in the boonies. I have relied solely on my parents to help me- I don't want my friends to help or see me have an attack so I rarely go out with them. I am still unable to drive very far at all and have yet to do much of anything on my own- ie. waiting in a lineup at a grocery store, staying alone in my apartment overnight!! So I don't know how I will survive 3 weeks of being on my own!! I could beg them not to go, I guess, but I know that would just cause them to resent me more and they really need a break. I also think it might force me to have to be self- sufficient and force me out of my safety zones which may be a good thing. But I really don't know if I can handle it. I am already feeling anxious about it and it's 2 weeks away!! I really do not feel safe within myself- horrible feeling! I know most of you can relate in some way. Also, I have no computer so I wouldn't be able to come on here or to my chat site when I really needed help! Ahhh help!!!
Okay, I know this is long but if anyone has thoughts I would love to hear them.
Thank-you ,
Sarah
