Well I know this isn't much really but I feel so proud of myself I just had to share!

Today I don't know why but I woke up, saw the sun shining and thought, you know what I'm gonna go out today. This in itself is a big thing for me!

So anyway, I had a shower, got myself ready. Felt a little anxious but I was determined to go out in this wonderful weather! :shades:
So me and my flatmate went over to my mums house, which is about a 15 min drive. (for me thats a big thing) anyway I felt fine on the drive over there, a few little moments of panic but I just distracted myself by looking at peoples gardens and houses and looking in the trees and the view. Then just when we got to my mums road, BAM there was a traffic jam! :ohmy: Now just the thought of being stuck in a traffic jam makes me panic. Anyway it was only a little wait but eventually it cleared and we got to my mums in one piece!
Spent a little time at my mums and then I turned to my flatmate and said...now this will shock you cos it did me!
I said... "lets go to Asda's!!" :ohmy: :ohmy:
Now I absolutely fear and loathe supermarkets! especially at the weekends but I was in a good mood and I didn't want to just rush back home when it is such a lovely day! So we went to Asdas, I bought some new pillows and few bits. Didn't panic one bit :shades:
Then I said "lets go to pets at home" and we went there, was rather busy but I didnt panic, I just strolled around looking at things and looked at the giunea pigs and bunny rabbits! Bought a few new toys and chews for my dog.
Then we left and decided to come home, I felt quite proud of myself and on the drive home, I realised we need something for dinner so I suggested we drive into town and go to Sainsburys. So not only did I manage the 15min drive back I then suggested another 5min drive into town to go shopping in sainsburys! :yesyes:
Went there, didnt panic at all! i felt more like my old self and I was walking around with my head held high and a big cheesy grin on my face! :D
God knows what everyone thought but I didnt care because for once I felt GOOD!!

So thought I would share it all with you as I am walking about with a spring in my step feeling very proud of myself! And tomorrow I have another little challenge for myself! :winks:
It just goes to show we can have our good days!!!!

Thankyou all for your replies! :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

Today I woke up in not such a good mood but I made the promise to myself yesterday that I would go shopping today so I made the effort even though I didn't feel like it! :yesyes:
I ended up in a busy shopping centre near me, strolling around feeling ok :)
I had a few wobbly moments but I managed to just bite my lip and get on with it :)
I didnt end up buying anything :shrug: even though I took my birthday money with me! So i came away empty handed but I still managed to go shopping in a busy shopping center which is a BIG improvement for me! :shades:

I am going shopping AGAIN tomorrow and this time I am going to go and find myself some new outfits as a treat with my birthday money! and I am also going to go to the health food shop and get my vitamins to help with my anxiety :)
A step in the right direction I hope!
Thank you all again for your kind words! It is so nice to have support from people on here :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:
Laura xxxxx:flowers:
