I had to quit my job due to bad anxiety. I'm functionally agoraphobic, single mom to a 3yo girl, live with my parents and 10 year old brother. I keep having to reach out to friends and family to have them "take care of me."
This is something that's been bee bopping in my head the last few days. I keep having to have my friends take care of me via fb/text. They run the gambit with me "eat/drink water/shower/where's Zoey/next appoint is" etc. via fb or text. They check in on me and my job hunt and push me about going outside and stuff. It's really intermittent because they of course have their own lives and I can't be their #1 priority. I also don't want to burden them with the full load of my psychosis, it's embarrassing and seems wrong in someway.
When I have their help I do better, but I think more importantly I'm better able to focus on fixing my health. I think if I could find a service or something that did this I would be better off. But it's kind of a weird concept. What do you guys think?
