Can’t leave

It takes me hours to leave the house especially for a weekend due to checking and anxiety.

It sounds really tough to deal with those feelings of anxiety, especially when they make something as simple as leaving the house take so long. That kind of checking behavior can be really draining. Have you found anything that helps ease that process, even a little? Sometimes breaking it down into smaller steps or setting a timer for each task can help manage the anxiety and make it feel less overwhelming. It’s important to be gentle with yourself during this—getting out the door is an accomplishment in itself.
