does anyone else really enjoy staying indoors rather than going out

what has kept me indoors mainly is my anxiety problems, i have agoraphobia to, so i've stayed indoors for a long time now, got my groceries delivered to my 3rd floor apartment by ordering online...and i'm getting used to being inside and enjoying my own peace & solitude rather than going out....i used to find going out stressful because of anxiety...and just the fact that i don't have to go anywhere either....i'm on disability benefits which i'm entitled to and on good pay......so i just feel thankful, grateful and very blessed right now.

the only think that's missing is finding a good friend or two, and even though i'm late 40s now, maybe that can still happen in time, i have hope....but for now i'm just enjoying my peace and solitude, being undisturbed....it's very quiet in this block of flats, my neighbours are very quiet and private....so yes i'm just very grateful, considering what's happening in the world right now.......praise the lord!

I love being outdoors, but mostly in nature, not amongst lots of humans. But I prefer and spend most of my time at home, where I feel safest and most comfortable. I love my home and it's the one place where things go my way, as it is set up just for me. Well, me and my cat. It's an absolute haven where I can do what I want and I'm never bored. I'm disabled so I have many aids round my house to help with my mobility, that I don't have when I leave my home. For instance my toilet is always accessible and clean and not up a flight of stairs. There are no out of order lifts and nothing is placed out of my reach. I control the temperature, the noise levels etc. I was housebound for various periods throughout my life, for health reasons, which was not fun and very isolating. I made a customised hybrid wheelchair/scooter and that gave me back my freedom and autonomy. I stay at home around 90% of the time and that works very well for me.

In the evenings I enjoy going out to my local pub. It is one block from my apartment. I go like 3 times a week.

I like staying indoors but also like being outside. The thing that's keeping me indoors right now, is the weather. I hate the cold. 🥶
