I thought about whether it was agoraphobia but it isn't being in a store that bothers me so much; it's the "gotta go do this now because I gotta go do this now" that is just one too many straws for this old camel's back. The extended blustery weather has sort of encouraged me to take the path of least resistence (and to stay home when not working) but you're right, it has gone on too long. If I have to wear my winter coat and mittens, I am going to get outside and walk. It's what I enjoy most and it's foolish for me to deny myself that pleasure. Monday is going to come regardless. Thanks for the suggestions! If things don't improve soon, I'll let my doctor know; she really is interested in helping me.
