It takes me forever to get around to doing errands and even then I schedule them all together, which is somewhat practical when it's 115!

I can make it to appointments if they are important, like taking my precious kitten to the vet. And the day I found out the IBS CDs were at a local shop I just went cuz I knew I wanted them ASAP. Of course I had to call ahead and check that they really had them there before I left.

And I only drag myself to the gym 1-2 times a week even though they are open 24 hrs and 3 min from my house.

But any fun stuff like meetups that I wanted to join or a local biz get together, I just don't go usually. Of course I haven't had anything scheduled like that in the past week since feeling stable.

I like the idea of maybe scheduling a time to go do some trial runs. Like I could practice leaving the house to go get gas at 9PM Wed and come home and that wouldn't be too big a deal. OK that's on my calendar. Having no schedule at work is a huge part of the problem.

I wish hubby could take me to work, but he sleeps 8pm-4am, he has to be at his job at 6am, and weekends he sleeps in if hes not doing overtime.

A lot of it just has to do with accountability and responsibilty neither of which are appealing to me. Sure theres many childhood issues around those. I just know I do not want to make myself sick anymore to avoid being an adult.

I just really didn't expect to feel so much better physically so fast! No more IBS excuses, wow the mental part really sucks too.
