Is it normal to be shit scared of going out?

I know I'm mentally ill, have been diagnosed but fuckin hell. Everytime I think about going out I get shit scared. I can only go out if I am told in advance, even then that doesn't always work. I plan when I go out, when I do I' usually pissed off or excited and it HAS to be either dark as hell or not so bright and isolated with no or very little people. I wish I had friends. I hate my appearance. I've fucked up my body with self harm.

    What do they call that? Agoraphobia? If you're mentally ill you probably have a therapist. Talk to them about it.

    have you got any friends at all to maybe help get some confidence back?

  • I've been through the same thing and still am in a way. It's social anxiety and probably depression. If you're not seeing a doctor or a counsellor, you should seek some help because it will eventually help you.

    If you already have help, tell them how you are feeling.

    I hope things get better for you, good luck :)
