my anxiety is out of control right now. my head is swimming and i can barely think straight. i am agoraphobic but i had made plans to go to a friends for thankgiving. i was looking forward to it. then yesterday i discovered someone i am very upset with is going to be there too. this totally devastated me and i lost all desire to go, but my friend did everything she could to convince me to still come. i also did not want to be alone. then my friend asked me what i was bringing. she never said anything about me bringing anything so i had made no plans to do so. so this means i have to go to the store today to pick something up to make, i usually need to prepare myself a week or so in advance to go to the store, so this really has me stressed. my agoraphobic anxiety is coming up with all the reasons not to go to her home now. the total aversion to not leaving my home and putting myself in this uncomfortable position of being around other people and having to go to the store to pick something up to bring, why go somewhere where i am going to be uncomfortable. it is just not worth it. why be so uncomfortable to get there. i miss not having thanksgiving and being alone, but i cant see putting myself thru so much anxiety. my head is spinning, swimming, i am nauseous. how can this be worth it. but then i think if i am to over come this agoraphobia, i should put on my big girl panties and power thru it. but what do it really have to gain by doing that? it is not like i am going to gain anything from it. i am just going to be frustrated being around this person who has been driving me up the wall. so i don't know what to do. i feel i should over ride my MI and power thru, but i don't know why i would want to cause myself that suffering. i would rather just be safe.

The Clonopin have kicked in and I am feeling much better. I feel like I can go to my friends house now. I did write T a crazy email. I baked brownies to take to dinner. I had all the ingredients here so I didn't have to leave my home. I may take another Klonopin before I leave have a good day everybody
