Glad you're pulling through mate. Nice to see you beating the odds. I remember watching a movie called In Papillon dans La Cite in which the main character suffers with locked in syndrome. In the movie the character is totally conscious and able to discern everything around him. How "aware" is aware when you're in that state in reality? Is it like being normally awake but no way of getting yourself heard or how is it? Sorry if this question is a bit broad.

Hi,

Firstly, thank you so much for your work. You guys are incredible.

My question is a rather selfish and specific one so please forgive me. I suffer from pretty extreme agoraphobia in relation to crowded public spaces like shopping malls, busy streets and all that stuff.

I was making slow progress before the pandemic hit but now with the risk of catching COVID-19 off someone I feel like my apprehension for trying to push my personal limits with regards to facing my triggers has gone through the roof.

Have you got any advice for this when restrictions have been lifted and how I could stay on track?
