    Thanks Pickle, Piglet, Kaz and Happyone

    On the way home from my appointment I went to the supermarket, managed to keep in control and buy something for myself for dinner tonight. It is the first time in a number of weeks that I've shopped sensibly, in control (without feeling the need to buy binge foods) and have also bought a proper veggie meal for myself.

    My favourite British strawberries are back in season again too

    Panic attacks started in 1992. 1998 i became agoraphobic which lead into being room bound. Couldn't even get upstairs. 2002 i started getting better, able to drive and work. 2005 i became house bound again. 2009 i have been making SLOW progress, still not able to go anywhere alone, but my journeys are getting longer. No where near 'normal' but at least i can go out.

    Thank you Bluebell and Donna

    I feel good tonight. I'd started to take such extreme measures to try to avoid allowing myself access to food and money because I didn't trust myself for fear of bingeing. I had to go to the supermarket by myself today to prove to myself that I can remain in control and also that I made the right decision discharging myself from all the NHS professionals.

    With the help of my CBT therapist I am making progress because I trust her and therefore I feel more in control. I can look after myself.

    that trust is so wonderful and I think it really helps to make one stronger. When it feels like someone is fighting with us, instead of against us, it is a world of a difference.

    That is so true Happyone and it is why I can make progress with my CBT therapist whereas I would never have got anywhere with the CMHT because I didn't trust them.

    Stargazer - Thanks hun See you tomorrow.
