Been there—well not exactly the same but depression, panic attacks, all that, yes a long time. Try a mixture of patience and looking at your fears.
If the fear is too big, don´t look. Try existing, try doing something nice or even something necessary and concentrate on that.
Try looking at your fear again.
What is the worst that can happen? You fear beeing overrun by a car?
Your fear is solid, don´t try to fight it with bravery, just train yourself to be EXTRA careful.
You fear you could fall into a thorny bush by the wayside? Go that way anyway, fight your fear with bravery at a time you have the nerve for it.
Perhaps take a tetanus shot before.
Have a lot of patience with yourself.
Still fighting myself.
I am proud of me. I had a long fight. I exist. And at the moment it is even fun existing!
Tomorrow—who knows?
Finding your way between scylla and charybdis, be proud of yourself.
