Something a bit different...

The decision to write this post was certainly not an easy one by any means, because it’s incredibly difficult to bare your soul to people, both to people you know and to the internet en masse. And trust me, I know how difficult it is – I’ve pretty much experienced every reaction under the sun when telling people I’m agoraphobic and suffer with bad anxiety: from genuine concern and honest curiosity, to blank looks and even outright contempt. One ‘friend’ of mine even had the audacity to suggest I was putting the whole thing on for ‘attention’ – that was probably the worst reaction of them all.
