Just nervous, anxious - I have always loved living alone and having my independence, but when storms like this come, I get very scared and nervous. I know my neighbors, but I don't know how confident I am knocking on one of their doors if I am really scared, I just don't know.

Just praying and staying calm. Maybe I should drive to my parent's house Wednesday night, I just don't know - or maybe just brave it myself. I don't like dealing with these kinds of feelings, in the past, right now would have been a good opportunity to spend the night drinking. I am scared.
I think driving to your parents house is a good idea. Then you have a chance to put new coping mechanisms into place.
