I didn't realize it's been five days since I last posted. Just trying to move files from one computer (Mac running Snow Leopard) to another one (Mac running Panther/Tiger to OS 9) and another computer, now almost dead that was running something between OS 7.5 and 8.1. Once that is done, I can turn my 22 year old mac into a fish tank!
Also got a very bad patch of depression which transformed into agoraphobia, I haven't left the apartment since Friday, just afraid to. I need to somehow- I need to get food! I want to walk to see the leaves turn. I just cannot open the door to do it.

Hope the MAC transfer goes smoothly for you. FWIW: my husband struggles with agoraphobia on occasion, too. Hope it lifts for you soon!
A MAC person is always near to my heart. Came over from Mary's blog. Nice to meet you.
@Sally, the mac transfer is going OK, it's just frustrating......I didn't know David was agoraphobic either. This is new for me- still learning how to deal with it.
@Syd, thank you! I l ove Mary. She was my very first follower!
Hope you feel better soon!
Susan
Thank you Susan!
Susan,
I've been agoraphobic for two times. The first time... I don' remember how long it lasted.
THe second time I know but I will not tell you.. lol
Now I see that I was so anxious and had so many problems with side effects that outside was terrible.
I don't remember that feeling anymore and never stood in front of the door in fear.
I just go out and close the door as if nothing has happened.
I'm sure the same wll happen to you.
Love,
Ana
Jesus Susan! You did choose such a beautiful kitty that I'm thinking about staying home for the whole week. (lol :) )
Ana, thank you. I actually did get out today for a while, spent some time with my family, so it was nice.
How are things by you:? We got some snow flurries here!
I really appreciated reading this blog.
The title "If You're Going Through Hell, Keep Going" is so great!
I've been helped a great deal in overcoming my agoraphobia (and overcoming the rest of my social anxiety) by attending Social Anxiety Anonymous support groups (they are free-- its a nonprofit). http://www.healsocialanxiety.com
Social Anxiety Anonymous also has really good writing on it's website about how to overcome social anxiety: http://healsocialanxiety.com/SPAOnlineLibrary.html
All I can say is it was completely free and has helped me enormously.
Phil, thank you for finding me. The quote comes from Churchill.
I have not heard of that group, but will look into them as soon as I finish this comment! Maybe they have something close to me in real life! Thanks!
Hope to see you again in the blogosphere.!
