When you have to check the flat for dangers and lock the front door before you'll go to the bathroom.

When you lose hours at a time with no recollection of them...and that's become pretty normal for you.

When normal day to day activities scare the hell out of you, but a genuinely dangerous or highly stressful situation doesn't bother you at all and you actually kind of want it to happen because it's a familiar situation.

I can totally relate Ice_ Fire to the last part of your post.

When an actual life and death situation is dealt with calmly, matter of factly and quite effectively, but picking up the children from school, or going to the supermarket causes panic attacks

Me too.

New When an actual life and death situation is dealt with calmly

And me.

When a day seems like a month or a year to get through.

 

[Britt.f7]

When the changing of a web page puts you in a little tizzy.

When it takes several months to get blood work done or see a doctor because of your anxiety of going out.

When you don't go grocery shopping because you feel you will be overwhelmed by everything...the people, the sounds, the choices.

Ditto the web page. What's this? Its not the same! OMG!

When you don't go grocery shopping

Yep...

Or when you pride yourself in eating the last scraps, or getting particularly inventive while cooking, so as to make use of the last provisions, and postpone going shopping for one more day.
