If you are too afraid to leave your house without a bulletproof vehicle you do need to go see someone.
I am not judging them for it, I am trying to help them as someone who lived 35 years of their life with an undiagnosed anxiety disorder who just thought that everyone felt the same way
Um.... Who said I am afraid to leave my house? Why would you assume something you know nothing about?
"I'm not judging them for it..." but you are. I'm sorry you had/have that problem. Keep your diagnosis to yourself.
I'm quite happy leaving my house. I don't have anxiety. I do have a therapist and he's treating my ADHD.
Since I'm already buying a new vehicle, given the state of American gun violence, why not pick up a vehicle that is slightly more bulletproof than any other vehicle? I'm paying the same amount for another vehicle that is not bulletproof. "Bulletproof" is like the airbag. I have never gotten into an accident where the airbag deployed. But I sure glad its there when I need it. Just another safety feature.
Whatever, it’s your life I don’t care.
Thanking you for minding your own business. It's better for your mental health.
