Don't be too hard on yourself...you did walk the dogs and go to church while you were feeling this way...it's important to recognize that you are isolating and then do the "opposite"...and you did...it may not feel great but gosh you recognized the symptom and then took an action plan to counteract it...congrats!

I too isolate...
