I'm having agoraphobia for a long time now. In December there was a stretch of 15 days when I didn't leave my apt., except to sometimes pick up mail and twice to go to the laundry room.
I kept putting off going to the store, but finally did go today because for the first time in 21 days the rain stopped, so I ventured outside. I had a talk with a neighbor, but felt self-conscious because I was very nervous. Usually, by the time I actually get inside of the store I'm okay. Today, I continued to feel anxious and disconnected.This is not me, I was never like this. I always felt so bad for people (my sister, for example) who had fears of leaving home.
Anyway, it's beautiful to see all the people marching on MLK Day. The rain stopped so they can march in many places. Lots of flooding, though, and of course, it's low income people who are most affected.
