Hi Mili

Sorry to hear you had a rough time..

I can relate to that...I ve felt that way many times, its horrible...it takes time to regain confidence , you need to tell yourself that you'll be fine even on your own , i know easier said than done, but if you say it to yourself it would be a good start. By starting changing your thought patterns, you'll change the worry pattern and therefore the anxiety.( if that makes sense ).
Hope that helps.

Florence.

I often get scared of being alone at home. Distraction is the best way to take it off your mind and make the time pass quicker..

Well done Mili,

You're absolutely right about each day being a new one and working at it so the goods outweigh the bad

That is all you can do for now - take each day as it comes and don't think that every day will be so bleak as sometimes things surprise us.
