Struggling with Agoraphobia and Loneliness

I am pretty lonely these days and my agoraphobia is pretty bad. I usually only get out of my house once a week to go grocery shopping with my grandmother. sometimes I leave for doctor appointments. I have been able to go places off and on in my past but sometimes the fear wins and I end up just staying home. does anyone else relate?

I have agoraphobia issues when I'm depressed. Currently I haven't been out of the house in about 7 months. I just keep pushing back stuff I need to do out of the house. I'm almost ready to start going out and doing things.

I struggle with leaving my home a lot. Sometimes using headphones helps but other times I feel I need to hear my surroundings to feel safer. I hope you can push through and go out at some point. I'm trying to get out more than once a week.
