Anxiety and socialization

Hello..new here. I was wondering if anyone suffers from anxiety and finds themselves becoming more and more "house bound"...almost afraid to get out of the house?  This has started happening to me, and it is not a good feeling.  I am newly retired, was always outgoing. Now that I am hom and alone...I find myself just getting worse with anxiety and hybernating!  I would be interested in knowing if anyone has ever felt this, and what you did to help the situation?  There are no support groups for anxiety/depression in my area.  Only one on one therapists.

sky789; Nov3 2012    I am fifty nine new to this group, just want to tell you that I have the same problem. It is not a very nice feeling and people that do not have anxiety do not have any idea how it feels . I hope you find a doctor who can help you.  Have a good day;  Thinking of you.

It is a struggle, the way I help myself is if I am able to go out it is with friends and just stay occupied, when your chatting about stuff it helps keep your mind off things, it helps me   Thoughts and prayers go out to you!!
