Hi Everyone,
I am so very nervous right now. I have been agoraphobic for 9 years now and the last time I left my road was 6 years ago. Tomorrow I am due to go to my doctors surgery which is about 5 minutes car drive away and I am petrified. My doctorhas given me 2mg diazepam in liquid form, I have been told to take 2 spoonfuls 1 hour before leaving and if not real effect after 30minutes to take another 2 spoonfuls. Can someone please tell me, will this really help me and allow me to be outside of my home and my comfort zone for what could be up to 40mins? I really dont want to feel ok leaving the house and then as soon as we get to the bottom of the road freak out as this has happened before and I cannot bear to go through it again and put my family through it as well. If anyone can help, I would be very grateful.
Thank you
