Yes yes and yes. This is all too familiar to me.

The idea of someone coming to my house, or me being invited out can cause anxiety just considering it. I have profound fear of this and anythign like it, so like yourself, spend most of the time in my room. Yet, i have had flashes of what I "could" be like and it's quite tragic to know that underneath I am not a fearful person and would otherwise enjoy a normal life.

I could have written this.
