AGORAPHOBIA: Spontaneous solo-trip to see how recovery has worked (after 15 months of Claire Weekes)

Hi, I was feeling defeated and deflated in my mental health issues but then I realized I've got the agoraphobia recovery down. So to prove it to myself I booked bus tickets and headed 4.5 hours South where I have family. Luckily for me I got the whole package deal, and my aunt took us to Tønsberg where we stayed in a hotel. That means bus, car, hotel and train; awesome practice. And the best part is, it was done and decided in the heat of the moment, because that's what recovery brings: freedom!

Maria, I don't know you, but, I'm so proud of you! It's amazing to watch your recovery journey and see you grow in confidence and freedom. You have inspired me to keep going on my own recovery from agoraphobia and panic.I recently moved out of a toxic family environment too, took a leap of faith! Have loved watching your story

You are doing well, mental health problems are hard and to make even a small step can actually be a major achievement. (Edit) - forgot to say, great hair as ever :)

I’m so hopeful I can get to a place you’re in! My panic attacks have made me homebound for a year, I’m afraid I’ll have a panic attack in a car ride so I just stay inside. I miss living

Thanks again for your videos. I’ve been dealing with agoraphobia also for a while. 4.5 hours is intense! I’m still around the 20 minutes, BUT coming from 1-2 minutes from the house I’m happy*er

I am so proud of you! Woho!
