Re: agoraphobia and moving house
Hi angel light, i am in the exact same position as you; agoraphobic and soon to be moving house in another county, an hour an a half drive away give or take. All i can suggest is you have a chat with your dr and mental health support team if you have one, mine were fantastic, my social worker will be coming with me on the day i move and my dr has provided me with some stronger medication for the move. As alabasterlyn suggested, try to travel at a time of day and on a day thats best for you, night time is always better as less people and cars around. Also as said take distraction things with you, such as an ipod or a handheld game console like a DS or PSP, also a bottle of water, paper bag and a hand held elctronic fan, i always find that helps, and poss a bar of choc or a packet of crisps in case you get the shakes. Good luck to you xx
