Hi...

Just an introduction from me. My name is Anthony, i'm 34 and i live in North Wales. In the past i've suffered terribly with agoraphobia. I went for about 3 years having great difficulty leaving the house. Now i'm somewhat recovered and i go out 2-3 times a week. I wouldn't say i was keen to go out but i do.

I'm fairly new to LiveJournal and could do with some friends. If you want me to add you leave a message here and mention it. Cheers.

Well done on the going out, even doing it when you don't feel like it is a major achievement, well done

I don't but my partner does for some time she could only just get out onto the front drive, now can almost go anywhere (locally) with me, we are currently working on getting her out without me and getting there, it can be beaten, might seem hard at time but it can be done

I'm glad your partner is recovering. Once you've gotten bitten by agoraphobia its hard to beat. But i'm sure she'll get there. I can go out alone but i'm reluctant, i only go if its absolutely necessary and then i get home as quick as i can.

thats good to hear you are doing better. I go through manic phases because its coupled with depression, I went out for 2 weeks straight before christmas after a month of severe depression, and during those 2 weeks I was convinced I was all better and that made it so hard when I crashed and foudn myself feeling worse then before. But its sorta.. 2 steps forward one step back on a long time frame so.. slowly maybe I am recovering too :)

I sometimes wish i got a bit manic, atleast then i'd have some energy and drive, as it is i don't do a lot with my life.

For me its like 2 steps forward and 2 steps back lol.

p.s. i've added you as a friend i hope you don't mind!
