You've come to a good place. Write, write, write and let us know more. You are not alone. I live in my head (is there any other way to live?) all the time, as much as I would like to drop this ton of bricks. How I long for that day!! I know you do too.
Maybe try just a little thing every day? Little things can lead to big things if they don't feel so overwhelming. Take a very short walk the first day? If it's not too hot, there will be plenty to look at and you might get distracted for a second. It worked for me. I started really slow by just walking down the street, then around the block, etc. Be nice to yourself too, reward yourself and try not to be SO hard on yourself. You deserve to feel better.
Just remember that you aren't alone. You've found babble!
best,
antigua
