Michael's Diary.. Intended to help

For those of you who got sick of my xmas music, I've now changed my playlist. How are you guys.. Anna? Silver? all my agor buddys? I'm baccccccckk..


an update

Nov 18 2009
Been offline a while as you have noticed.. Between eye strain and jogging my lunches, its been hard to really get time for my daily agphobe stop, but I'm TRYING as best I can,.. I really miss campagor and want to make sure I stay in touch with all my good friends here.  Jogging has been going well, though the weather is starting to get colder in california where I live and I think I may have to hang it up in favor of doing the stairstepper during lunches.    My commute has been less challenging with each time I make it to work.. I can now sit in traffic for upwards of an hour without having panic (everday in silicoln sludge is traffic), though in the evenings, when going home, I suffer bad depresssion sometimes and loneliness.  I have had problems in the past with loneliness before getting married that have carried over even though I am.. Of course I sometimes wonder if the person I am with truly understands what kind of challenges I face as an agoraphobic. .. I can't just jump when the will calls for her to travel and SEE the country I brought her too.. I sometimes regret I wasn't more forthright about my problem before marriage but then I'm right back to the square one of loneliness.  I think I might not be the only agoraphobic having this problem.. Anyone care to comment on spousal support or lack thereof?  That might make a good thread..

Oh that would make a great thread. How many of us would post the truth is the question. Some things are best left unsaid for some of us anyway. I am glad your commute is going well, that is huge progress and I am sorry that you are feeling this depression and loneliness. It sucks, I know. Camp Agor is still alive and well though and we like having you here whenever you can make it.

What do you think would happen if you trusted your spouse and asked her these quetions? What would happen if you asked her, "Do you want to know what happens to me physically and emotionally when I panic? What do you feel when I panic?" That would be a good starting point.
