Every journey starts with the first step, then the next and so on. I think Perna gave you excellent advice. By making a game of it, you take your mind off the fear and onto something positive. There is no one better or less than you, we are all the same in this human experience and when one offers help we must trust them and be glad. Life is all about change, your future will not exist in your present housing. You are in a period of transition. As a young woman, I isolated myself as well. But I sought the help I needed and have lived a simple, satisfying life...you will too my friend if you take those first steps.
