I haven't LEFT my house for 10 YEARS so far

We got just incredible stories that we want to share with you. Sent us this story Jennifer. She is sociophobic. She want to share her story with you. Maybe it will help someone to ask for help in time.

"My childhood was completely normal. There were games, streets, friends, a beloved and loving family. I had no problems. The biggest injustice I faced was when my mother took away candies and forbade eating a lot of sweets. They always have time for me and the right words of support. I have never been seriously punished.
But when I was five years old, something terrible happened to our family. We were walking around the city, wanted to go to a cafe, eat some ice cream.This was really scary! I saw five people being shot. I watched them fall and prayed that the shooter wouldn’t shoot me or my parents. And the police didn’t come.
Then, the panic started. People were running somewhere. Some people were simply knocked down to the ground by the crowd. They were screaming. And, just in case, the shop assistant hid me under the counter and told me to close my ears and eyes.
Soon, it was all over. The shooter was caught and taken to the police. It turned out that he was a former soldier, who had gone mad and decided that he was at war.There were a lot of victims, seven people were killed, about 20 people were injured, more than 40 people suffered from the crowd... It’s still terrifying to recall that day. I could only close my ears and eyes, when my dad took me home, holding me in his arms.
The impressions abated over time, and the horror was forgotten. I went to school, did all the ordinary things children did. At first, my parents blamed laziness and unwillingness to study, and forced me to go outside. I did my best to go to classes and tried not to look around.
Afterwards, I began to get anxious about shrill sounds. I started getting extremely nervous, almost fainted, when I heard loud screams and even baying of dogs. But there was nothing wrong at home. We even watched fireworks trough the window. Perhaps, that’s why, my parents didn’t sound the alarm immediately.
It got to a point where I fainted and convulsed right on the threshold on the Day of Farewell Bell at school. It was the moment when my parents realized that their daughter didn’t fake it, and took me to a psychologist. It was a posttraumatic syndrome, a normal child’s response to horror. This is certainly better than a heart attack, but it doesn’t solve the problem.
I started home schooling. The teachers came to our house so that I had at least some kind of education. Of course, I had no friends either.
I had a relative social life online. Social networks, chats on interests – these were the place, where I could satisfy my thirst for communication in some way. But I wanted some real friends! I wanted to fall in love, walk under the moonlight, go to the seaside... Unfortunately, I still couldn’t take a step out of the house. So I had only dreams, and apparently, they were unachievable.
If no one can help you, help yourself. This truth occurred to me 10 years after a voluntary confinement had started. Finally, a prince appeared in my life. He wanted to drag the princess out of a high tower, and the dragons (aka parents) threw down a rope ladder for him.
We got acquainted in a famous online game. My father even agreed to meet him at the bus stop, when he came to visit me for the first time.
David is the only one who didn’t run away after finding out what my problem was. He has stayed by my side and kept doing his best so that I can live instead of sitting at home for the rest of my life. We developed a rehabilitation program together. He even consulted with a very cool professor from the capital. Now my progress is as follows: I can go down to the porch and stay outside for three minutes. Of course, it is nothing special to onlookers. But this is a huge step forward for a person, who has been terribly afraid of leaving the house for 10 years.
I believe that we will definitely cope with my illness together. And I’m ready for this hard work because I know that the person who loves me is by my side.
Share your fears in the comments and, please, support me by liking this video. And fight. Always struggle with your difficulties and problems. Because no problem is worth giving up on life. Believe me, if there are people who are ready to catch you, you’re not scared to fall so much".
