I only feel safe in my bedroom.

Lately, I have been terrified to leave my bedroom. It's gotten to the point where I can't go into my living room by myself. At night, it's kinda easier when I have my fiance but during the day he is at work. For example, yesterday I had an appointment and had to pick up my fiance from work. I was in full panic attack mode, couldn't breath, didn't trust anybody around me. I only felt like myself and safe again when I got back to my bedroom.

Is It Normal?

    • Everything that is going on in the world lately. When my front door is locked and my bedroom door is closed, I feel safe. I don't trust the people outside.

  • That sounds really phobic and you need to get yourself some professional help. You say "lately": it would be helpful if you can work out what incident triggered this response.

    • Thank you! Honestly, I think it has to do with with all the bull crap that is going on in the world. I figure I'm safer in my room then outside. My fiance is going to find us a therapist that we both like and makes me feel comfortable

  • You're being paranoid, but it's pretty normal.
