nice to meet you all:)
my name is sara and im nearly 33.
i suffer from agoraphobia and social phobia and have for as long as i can remember.
i live with my partner who is my rock and does so much for me and are 4 dogs, 3 yorkies tye zac and brandi and a shih tzu called suki.
i cant ever remember not feeling like i do even as a child.
my mum said it started when i was about 18 months old and she had to go in to hospital for a while, she said when she came out i wouldnt have anything to do with her for a few days and then i became very clingy.
as a child i would only talk to my nan, grandad, mum, dad, brother and sister i wouldnt talk to anyone else in the family.
i was banned from the play school as they said they had never seen a child soooo upset before at being left and could do nothing with me.
my mum then left me with her friend but one day she came back to find me still sitting in the same place that she had left me 5 hours before and still with my coat on and bag in hand, her friend just thought i would be like a normal kid and just take out my toys and played but i hadnt even moved.
at school i had a lot of friends and would talk to them but for my first whole year i wouldnt talk to the teacher and use to get my friend to talk to her.
school was very hard for me as i hated it, i just wanted to be at home with my mum.
i had a lot of time off school.
i have only ever worked for 6 months when i got a bit better but had to give that up as i had a relapes.
ive always felt like i do so trying to think of what it would be like not to be this way is very hard as i have no clue what it even feels like to be able to go on a bus on my own without panic.
anyway enough of me, how are all of you?:)
