I've been on my own two feet since July, almost a year without relying on doctors, prescriptions, or therapy. I've been happy and healthy, I've not let anything drag me back down.

I've had my days where I wish I was still housebound, not having to deal with the raging masses with people that are insulting or rude. I still make myself go out, go to work, go grocery shopping.

The one thing that defeats me, every time, is being in a crowded place. Where there are so many people it's almost like being trapped.

I was out for dinner with the boyfriends' family, and at the South Common Keg. There were so many people, and there were people crowded around our table, I almost felt like I was choking, my heart was racing, and I was so nervous. I was fine once the area cleared out, but it was still scary.
