Days 20 and 21

well yesterday was a busy day. I went to the tip with my dad and quickly in to town. I was very tense with it all. really didn't like being in town, lot of angry young drivers around.

Ordered a few books including CBT for dummies which was highly recommended to me. Cant wait to have a read through that. I'm finding it so difficult to be around people, even talking to them online. As much as I don't want to be anxious all the time, I don't want to be on my own either. I cant avoid people (however much I might want to).

I spent today in the garden. I like to be in the garden, well most of the time I do. I don't like being in the front garden in case I meet anyone, how stupid does that sound?

I'm already struggling. I haven't stopped going out, I'm just finding it more and more difficult. The more people that are around me, the more I want to run.

You will have good days and bad days. That is normal. When you have a setback, just remember it is temporary and pick yourself up and try going out again. You will be able to do it if you get in the ridht mindset.

Thanks for the advice cathy. think I will have a wonder out tomorrow. Feeling a little lonely. I haven't had anyone my age around me for 18 months now.
