Thanks, ickydog! That's true - I doubt I would even have considered calling people from school before. I didn't really have a choice this time, though, which I guess is a good thing, seeing as if I do have a choice I usually try and get out of doing it.
Thanks. That's great you're working on desensitisation too, and well done for reaching your first goal already!
Good idea, I'll give that a try.
Thanks again!
