It's back to this. Back to not being able to even think about opening the bedroom door without shaking uncontrollably. If I do make it out of the room, I start panic cleaning, rearranging and pacing. If I step outside, full blown panic attacks and my other stuff (hallucinations mostly) get drastically worse. When someone's with me, this stuff still happens but I use the other person to sort of ground me. It makes it a little easier.
I can't keep doing this. I have to get a job so I can help pay some bills, but how can I do that when I can't even leave this room? Sorry. I'm just venting, I guess.

you need an anxiety intervention. Follow and heed any advice and treatment your doc offers you at this point coz this is very serious. Anything to get out and about coz staying in for prolonged periods of time is downward slide to a depressive hell. I literally drag myself out of the bed for 1 hour walks in the sun everyday, am action that goes against every fiber of my body, which is screaming, stay inside, even if youre miserable just stay inside. the world outside is scary.. and on and on my inner voice goes but i do it anyways and i always feel better after my walks. i feel sane. centered. and that voice never really goes away, it goes along with me for walks and is constantly screaming turn back go home..My point is we gotta do what we know is healthy and essential to keep us sane. youre anxiety is obviously higher than mine so get every help from your doctor you can. Use benzo's for temporarily getting you out of the house. coz the rewards outweighs the cons in this case.

Are you able to expose yourself to the rest of the home gradually day by day?

That's what I've been doing. I've gotten a bit better, though I'm still having a lot of anxiety. I've also had a lot more flashbacks these past few weeks than I've had in an entire year. I don't know why it's all getting worse.
