When my IBS was at its worst I was the same way as you. I drove to work and then straight home and didn't leave my house any other time for any other reason. In fact...I spent an extra half hour driving to work so I wouldn't have to take the highway (in case I had to use the washroom along the way and couldn't exit in time).
I started by taking walks.
First just try a walk around your street (where you can run home real fast if need be)....then as you get more comfortable walk a little farther, etc. That helped me tremendously.
After you get a little more comfortable then you can start taking real outtings.
Hang in there....it does get better and I'm sure once you start hypnosis you'll feel even better!!
