    yes I do call it being a drama queen, lots of other people will have to do this course as well, why should you get special treatment because you really just don't want to go. If you went with an open mind you might just learn something that will benefit you in your search for employment, but if you can choose not to go and therfore not get yur JSA ~I guess you can't really need the money that badly...

    agrophobia is fear of being in public places ? but yet you are going out and doing some work to boost your cv ?

    When you do go into employment you will have to go to public places wont you so will your phobia come back then ?

    i'm sorry but to me it sounds like you are just making excuses not to go ....you must be lucky to have savings whilst on jsa.

    if you call looking at 4 walls for 7 hours a day being a drama queen then so be it.

    Its called "work".

    If you expect to get a job then you have to be prepared for sitting a desk for 7 hours (at least) with one break.
