For two days now, while I haven't been at work, some one has knocked on the apt door. I know it's the exterminator, but I'm so nervous about opening a door to some one. I don't know why, but when I'm home alone, I don't want anyone but me to be here. (Unless it's my bf). I'm scared to open the door. I never do. It's probably one of my biggest fears.

Anyone know a way to fight this fear? (Besides "open the door"?)

I hate going outside sometimes. I hate facing people sometimes. I'm so scared to talk to people except online sometimes.

Then other times I'm really outgoing and not afraid of anything.

It digusts me RIGHT NOW to even step outside the door and do laundry (washer and dryer outside the door, about 10 ft). I'm afraid to.
