Hi everyone, will try and keep it short.
I'm a 7 year sufferer of Agoraphobia, Anxiety,OCD & Depression.
My son started school in September, I am extremely fortunate that his school is about a 5 minute walk from my house but as I try to explain to people who don't understand (which in itself makes me even more upset) some days its like trying to walk to Antarctica fighting through monsters! But I have surprised myself and others around me since my little boy started and actually done really well getting him too and from school without any panic attacks or panic that usually builds up when I know I have to leave the house.
But now I can't sleep...I have tried everything other than drugs (which are out of the question in this case) which is making me a wreck when it comes to taking my son in to school...I had to phone his father yesterday to leave work and go and collect him. I won't be able to get him in again today and I feel like such a failier, I'm sitting here as I type crying and feeling incredibly alone & don't know what to do. Sometimes I think I should not of been aloud my beautiful boy, I hate that he'll always be effected by my issues. Its not fair on him at all.
Guess I was just wondering if any parents been through same sort of thing or had any advice? Would be greatly received:weep::weep::weep::unsure:!
