like a little kid who is scared of the dark
maybe a poor comparison, but especially when it comes to my agoraphobia.. i find myself thinking like a kid would think- i'm scared to do this, i'm scared to go out, i want mummy to tell me it's okay... that kind of thing.

and my social phobia makes me feel useless... oh, okay, well, i can't even say hello to somebody or walk past them... i must be such a bad person. like that

and i've missed out on loads of stuff!
