My little prison

I am agoraphobic. It affects every aspect of my life.....let's face it, I don't have a life. I have in under a certain level of control, but I basically am able to go to work and home.

I decided to start this blog as a way to "step outside" of my comfort zone, without actually having to, you know, step outside. I have always been a writer, and think that if I can work up to posting on a regular basis, that I can start to break the cycle of hiding from the world.

I really don't know what was the catalyst for this disease. I have always been shy, but led a pretty exciting life. I have lived all over the world, and used to be a photo journalist in another life.

So I have now shared more information today than I have in 5 years. I am exhausted. And until I hit the publish button, I am still in control. The hardest thing for me to do is hit that button. So I will do it now before I can talk myself out of it. I will try to post here every day (best case) but am committed to posting at least once a week.

Baby steps.......

Welcome!

Join me on my journey back from the abyss.
