You might try calling your local NAMI National Alliance for the Mentally Ill. They may have a volunteer would might be willing to work with you. Or they may know of another local group they could help out. Here is the link for the one in KY. http://ky.nami.org The national site is www.nami.org.

Don't despair. I knew a woman who was agoraphobic and did not leave her apartment for 5 years. With the right medication, some help from family, weekly therapy, she is now in her 3rd year of college! And she is kicking butt there!

Keep posting, we want to help.
