After a year of therapy I still can't go out alone

I am very upset today. I wanted to go outside with my mother. I begged her to come with me. She had to clean the house. I can't go at all outside when it's dark. She refused to come with me during the day. Now it's raining and dark. I can't go outside anymore. I had to humiliate myself and all for nothing. I will stop going outside. I am so tired of insisting so much. I should be able to go outside by myself after a year of therapy. But I can't. This is no life. Should I give up to this therapy?

@dya80dya agoraphobia is new to me but I guess that is not easy to cure.

Wow I had no idea you could not go outside so you have the condition of agoraphobia? I am sorry to hear it. I have this mildly at times, but I am able to go outside quite a bit.
The therapy should be helping yes.
Maybe keep trying it.
Sorry your Mom would not come out with you, I wish she would have.
If I were there, I would walk out with you Diana.

@dya80dya Yes it would be great my friend. Really I am so sorry. Maybe if you quit the therapy you would be better?

Is it social anxiety that you are dealing with?

@dya80dya that is debilitating. I hope you find a way to overcome it soon.
