There is literally nothing here. No bus, no cabs, no bookstore that I can walk to, nothing. There is a Starbucks about a mile and a half away and a bunch of boring little antique shops. There is no sidewalk to get there and I'd be walking on very busy roads. I also would have nothing to do there when I get there and being alone in a room full of people is a fairly bad trigger for me.

But yeah, getting out of the house would be good for me. I've been in here for a week only getting out to drive around yesterday which wasn't exactly a break from the anxiety I experience while being here.
