So, you know how much your insurance will be each month? And the tax plus other stuff for the car?Sealed pot challenge #232. Gold stars from Sue-UU - :staradmin :staradmin £75.29 banked

Mmm....you said that you can go nowhere alone, not even into your drive, and yet in an earlier post you say that if you had a car, you could pick up a friend to go shopping. Are you going to get a hole knocked through your living room wall so that you can get into this new car without actually having to venture into the drive? Otherwise I cannot see how you would even be able to get yourself into this lovely new car.0

Ok clearly people are so picky i am now going to have to describe the way my house and garden and drives are...my front garden i obviously wont go in on my own. the back garden can be seen from the front road so i don't go in there now the drive is long fits about 5 cars or so, anyway there is one door on the side of the house which is right on the drive way so i can open the door and get in the car without barely doing a couple of footsteps so i can hack that.
Yes i have done an insurance quote for quite a few different cars so i know how much each one is. I have check up on prices for tax and mot and so and so. I've written it all down.0 -

Stop biting on peoples comments, I think you need to accept that it is unlikely you will get help to buy a car and you need to concentrate on getting to shopping trips other ways.
I'm sure you have done your research into what to do to help yourself untill you can get CBT, try and keep doing these.The Googlewhacker referance is to Dave Gorman and not to my opinion of the search engine!
If I give you advice it is only a view and always always take professional advice before acting!!!

I wasn't biting just replying because their not things i said. I know it is unlikely, i only ever posted this to ask if there was any help available, i wasn't demanding it and i will happily go the hard way and save if needs be, that is not a problem.0

Sorry my apoligies not the grandparents to the shop but just to drive the grandparents!!!!!!!
Anyway if you can't go out how can this be possible? also i would love to have your benefits as i have worked all my life from the age of 15 and have now been made redundant and recieve nothing having paid into the system all my life!!!!!!!!0 -
I'm only in my early twenties. I've been like this since my mother can remember about the age of 10 as i lived in a violent home which triggered it off. I've attempted college so many times and about 5 different jobs all of which i've had to leave through so much upset and panic that i couldnt handle anymore and broke down so my mother forced me to the doctors as i was also living on no money to scared to do anything about it. I've been off work 2 years now but only been getting any benefits or treatment this year.
As i said i cant go out alone. My safe places are my house and were my car. Both things i can lock the door and stay away from people.0
