Well, I survived going outside...
I know, that sounds really terrible. I hate myself for having this anxiety problem, and I hope it's something I can work through. I beat it once, I should be able to again.

Anyway, I dropped grandma off at the doctor's office and decided to take care of my lab work right then, since the lab is just down and across the street. Unfortunately I ended up getting stuck three times; must be because it was a Monday. My veins weren't being cooperative, and the girl who usually draws my blood was having a hard time. She got it in the end though, which I'm glad for because that means I won't have to go back again. At least not for another two weeks.

By the time I drove back to the doctor's office, grandma had just gone in, so I waited with her for the doctor, and while she had her check-up. The doctor was concerned when grandma mentioned the fall she had on Friday, during which she whacked her head on the dishwasher. Even though grandma doesn't want us to make a big fuss, we should keep an eye on her and maybe take her in for a head scan if her headache doesn't go away. Playing it cautious.

So with grandma there to talk to as a distraction, my iPod, and the fact that I had a lot of other stuff on my mind, I managed to survive the trip without having any kind of panic attack. Let's hope this will point the way toward a recovery. For now though, having someone with me as a distraction is a good idea.

Thanks to all who care enough about me and my problems =)
