thankyou for all for your support..

well i though i wold post this as it been over a week and still cant believe i did it my sister and brother in law was takeing my mom and dad to glouster for a early fathersday prezzie so i got up early on the sunday to have brekkie with them all as i hadnt seen my sister for 2 weeks and they convinced me to go with them after an hour of saying come on it will get you out the house i got my self ready and got in the car and though "i will do this" well it was over an hour to get there and i didnt panic much just more of the anxiety not knowing where i was....
i made it there and then they told me "oh we are going on a train ride" so i though i will do my breathin the train ride lasted bout an hour and we got off at different stops and had to go through a tunnel it scared me at first as all the ligths in the train went off as well my sis grabbed my hand and said really calmly to me "drink your water " you are here and ok...

we got to the end of the train ride and had a walk about but they got hungry and realised we left the food in the car and then it hit me i got to go back on the train and that bloody tunel :( so got back on the train a lil anxious again but was thinking i will beat this tunel and i did sat by everyone and was talking looking for the ligth at the end of the tunel and though i can make it out of this tunel so i will make it out of this anixety/panic tunel i am in just got to have faith...:D[^]

we got off train at the end and i even eat in a public picnic park felt a lil wierd had the cold bumps dont know if any one else gets it but just told my self i am here safe and well...

but it the furthest i been now and went for the whole day i was so tired but foned my friends up and told them everyone was more excited than i was lol [8D][^]:)

well start my cbt on the 28th as i want to start walking on my own again..

oh and i did all this with a chest infection no wonder i was breathless hahahahaha..... if you got this far and not bored you thankyou for reading it
