Hi,
Due to my anxiety I am almost housebound at the moment, doing simple tasks such as popping out to buy milk is a struggle and brings on panic attacks. Is anyone else in a situation like this? I do manage to attend weekly therapy sesssions though and am ok to go and visit my parents but that's really it. I am also struggling with the boredom of being like this and of not having anything to do. I am desperate to go out and live my life but at the moment it is proving to be very hard. In a way I am glad that I am bored as it means I am not declining into depression and I still have the motivation to try and get better. I tend to stay up late and sleep in late, I also nap a lot as I find anxiety exhausting but also I think it's because I have nothing else to do. I keep on top of housework, play ps3, read books, watch tv, but to me that is not much of an existence.
I was wondering what other people do to fill their day and pass the time.
many thanks,
