    Welcome Zuni, I'm very glad that you found this forum and decided to join. You are definatley not a dork, you're not alone in losing your job because you can't leave your house.

    Feel free to ask any questions and I'm sure if anyone can offer advice they will help.

    Hello

    You are not alone, even tho this disorder leaves us all feeling alone sometimes. I gave up my job, because of this disorder. Can't make it out the door, can't handle the pressures at work.

    Are you seeing anyone for help, therapist? Taking any meds? Both canl help you if you give them a try. I'm reading a book that you could check out. Anxiety and Phobia Workbook by Edmound Bourne that has givin me a lot of insight on the disorder and gives you steps to work on recovering.

    Hope you have a good day
