I really hope not. That would be awful. He walks to the store and does things,though. He works odd jobs and goes to band practice and knows how to drive but just wont get a liscense. He's seemed to have no fear or anxiety about leaving his house no matter what time of the day. He does spend a lot oftime at home but i feel it's because he has issues,yes,but not agoraphobia. Like anger issues,and depression type feelings. He seems to have no problem talking to strangers and isn't shy. I just don't get the feeling he is afraid to leave the house but that it's more of a block in the motivation aspect of things.
Anyways,we had a fight today and he said the most awful thing someone could say to me. He had the nerve to imply I caused someone important to me to die. It really is for the best I keep a distance from him. I feel for him and get that he gets lonely,and maybe has some kind of block preventing him from being a man and getting his things done but his negativity just brings me down and I love life too much to let him cause me to spiral into a depression. He got paranoid accusing me of things last night so I called him to explain better then text and he just kept talking,and talking,and talking and then it just got so negative i couldn't take it anymore. Luckily,I did my affirmations shortly after which brought me back up again.
