Dealing with Anxiety and Fear of Leaving the House During COVID

hi everyone, I'm Cardeg. new to the group...I've had increased anxiety when it comes to leaving the house for any reason. I postpone whatever I can and have anxiousness when anticipating days that I have to leave. it is worse since covid. I had meetings twice a week and went to the gym 3 times a week...I have to be careful about masking and distancing. I have asthma that's brought on by a virus that puts me in the hospital every time. I recently got out of hospital again from asthma incident...not covid...so I'm back to being fearful of rejoining my previous activities..I see a therapist every three weeks..

Baby steps: go outside for short periods of time. Increase time when feeling less anxious.
