How often do you leave the house?

[lastch]

I rarely leave my house these days due to my anxiety and was wondering if anyone else was in the same boat. I've no job, college or friends. I just sit in the house all day suffering from ptsd flashbacks and having panic attacks. I've been this way for ten months now since I was hospitalised.

Sending hugs to anyone who can relate, I know how lonely it is

I go into the office 5 times a week so pretty much that only. I dont mind as the weather is getting better now but wish I was back to hybrid

 

[S like suicide]

too little and since too much time now...and it's a problem.
if I want to improve I absolutely have to change this right away and go out often because I need it to try to live and not just breathe and suffer every day.
I understand your pain...hug you

I have responsabilities that drag me out of here a couple times a week, else I'd probably stay. Vacations are usually like that. This christmas I cloistered and watched like 50 movies.
Also really sorry you are getting through that. I know that state well and it can make the house feel both like the only safe place in the world and a prison that's digesting you. It's dark and lonely and it gets awful. So I feel you, sending you bigger hugs back <3333

At most two times a month. I always end up getting mocked whenever I leave the house, so I usually only leave when I have to.

Just to get food or take my son places

 

[JoysoftheEmptiness]

I used to be very housebound, but I'm trying my best to get out alot more, taking my dog for a walk, going to the shops, or going to the pub for a beer, been lucky in going to a charity where I attend workshops and classes on looking after myself, and recently started a crafts class, my mobility isn't good so that's an added problem i'm struggling with.

school monday-thursday, work friday-saturday(once a week, or twice), sometimes sundays. sorta forced myself to get used to only going out for school since my mom is very overprotective and i can't drive so my transportation to places is limited.

 

[sad_dog]

used to leave daily but recently I've been lucky to get out once or twice a week

 

[Outofoptions1]

Since my breakup 3 months ago, I only go to work and that's it. I have 0 motivation to do anything else. Weekends and evenings are spent inside and I order all of my food via delivery or don't eat at all.

Going to work 5 days a week takes a massive toll on me and I've been postponing/cancelling appointments unless they're virtual.

 

[DamagedGirl]

Maybe a couple of times per year. Anyone else like that?

 

[33-vertebrae]

Maybe once every three months.

And even then it's usually to take out the trash (my dad usually does it) or check the mailbox.

Rarely do I actually travel anywhere, but I'm hoping that will change.

 

[Unhumanly.]

My job don't require me to go to an office building, so I rarely go outside, I go out if necessary, or if I just want to go out to a nice place

 

[BeyondOver]

once every two weeks ig

 

[Forever Sleep]

Asides from taking the bins out, very rarely. I work from home and get shopping delivered. Last year, I think I went 8 months without going anywhere.

 

[Sad_Autistic_boy_101]

I very rarely leave the house. It was never my intention for this to happen but when my father figure CTB, my support for my Autism got taken away as I lost the person who was advocating for me. I have spent 6 years in my bedroom with no professionals listening to me. They've finally started to after a new social worker but even now I barely leave the house.. Maybe once a month but sometimes that's just sitting in the car.. to properly go outside can be a couple of months.

[worthless123]

Haven't left the house all year. Outside is for normal human beings.

 

[Forveleth]

I have a full time job so I have to leave home for that. Even on my days off I need to go out for chores and I also just like being outside. Even if it is just sitting out front of my house or taking a quick walk up and down the street.

 

[slightoverlooked]

im very social and extroverted so very often. when im in a depressive episode it can be that i dont leave my house for 1-2 weeks but other than that i meet up with friends a lot plus go to uni.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

It depends - a few times a week if I have to buy things. I stay at home most of the time.

 

[bankai]

I go out every day. Either the gym or the office or buying groceries.
