hi guys
need some advice-
its one of my best friends b day on friday and she has asked me to come for a dinner in her fav restuarant.
My prob is -
1. We will have to get the train there and back and i havent been on a train since last november
2. I havent been out in an eating place since all my anxiety began at start of this year
My friend knows bout my anx etc and has said that its cool if i didnt go but i really want to- i dont wanna let her down and wanna be there for her bday.
What should i do- my anx and panic have been a lot better this last month since i have settled in back at work- the last 2 weeks though when i have had my days off i have been ill (not anxiety ill- had cold one week, infection the next) so i havent really been out of my "comfort zone" if you like. N this night would be facing all my fears at once!!
Its funny coz as i am writing this thread i can feel the anxiety building up!!
