I understand you haven't gone for a while, if it's difficult to go out at all. @Lee71 

Is there anything you want to talk about tonight? (No pressure at all)

When I go out I always have a ton of anxiety, anxiety on the phone,  in person, especially when I don't know someone, 2 people in a room is too many.

I am really sorry to hear, Lee 😞 It sounds like you do really well to go out to your therapist and doctor. 

Do you have your regular appointment with your therapist next Tuesday? @Lee71 

[Lee71]

@NatureLover  it's Wednesday now, and my regular therapist and another one, his boss as well .

Having some strong urges again...

Oh no, he changed the day again? And does this mean your appointment is with 2 people at once?

OK, that would be making you very anxious? @Lee71 

[Lee71]

@NatureLover  yes very much so. Everytime  I think about it I get anxious

[NatureLover]

Yes...I'm sorry to hear 😞

I'm thinking that your therapist must be very concerned about you, to arrange this?

@Lee71 

[Lee71]

@NatureLover  yes.  And my therapist has been in contact with my doctor
