UPDATE: I had a great weekend! I went to the store, and left my husband on one side of the store while I went to the other! I rode my bike in the driveway, I didnt venture out on the street, but Im going to keep working on this. I also was very good at controlling the way I reacted to the negative thoughts! I did however take a 12.5 mg of xanax each day, but I dont think it was the reason I was so brave because it is such a small dosage and even if it was, then the way I think of it...If I can do it with the xanax then I can also do it without. So, Im feeling REALLY positive...
