What's the longest you've gone without leaving your house?

Mr. Wong

I haven't left this house since I came home from work on Friday evening at 5. I've done nothing but watch TV and eat.

Praetorian Saighdiuir

3 days at the most. Sulking for no apparent reason at all. Must have been my man period.

annieoburns

leg in plaster so quite a looooong time..... Then bone broke again two days later and another looooong time :(

DaveDaRave

probably a month or 2 when i used to do nothing but play guild wars

hfallada

Probably 4 days when I was sick. More than that and I get cabin fever.

I don't want to turn into little Edie from grey gardens who rarely left her **** covered, raccoon infested mansion in the hamptons. When the next owner was cleaning the house they only found the remain of 54 dead cats.

It's a pity Aung San Suu Kyi isn't on Boards.

She'd win this competition by a long shot.

jennytightlips

It was 2 weeks ago from yesterday
I had major surgery so can't move around much. Starting to feel like im going mad !!

I did it once where I came home from work on the Friday, by Sunday morning I had cabin fever and went out!

I suck at relaxing.

Wasn´t that the reason she stayed indoors?

About 18 months from mid 1998 to jan 2000.

Miss Lockhart

Nine weeks. Then I went for a walk on my own late one night and then didn't go out again for six weeks.

Menas

I have not left my house in 14 years.

I live in an apartment.

4 days once when I was sick. Felt really weird stepping out into the real world again.

I suppose "about 12 hours" isn't really gonna cut it around here.

Medme

Three days a couple of weeks ago...pretty convinced I was close to insane by the last one. Felt like a complete weirdo when I rejoined the outside world

ReacherCreature

I'd say Thursday. I went out earlier for 15 minutes. That's a bit of a record, being in the house that long. No job, finished college, I'm going stir crazy. I remember during study week in college I stayed in for about three days. Had to go for a walk to break the monotony.

Can't believe it took 18 months for the council to fit a ramp on the nuclear steps!

Id say Julian Assange will be giving her a run for her money.

Cee-Jay-Cee

Years ago I worked and lived in Munich. I was sharing an apartment with another lad I worked with. We lived on the 3rd floor and I arrived home on Thursday evening of a long weekend. I wasn't due back at work till Tuesday. I went out Thursday nite and got stupid drink and lost my keys but my mate was home and so let me into the apartment that night but when he got up the next morning to go to work and then head away that evening for the weekend he forgot I had no keys and locked me in! We had no phone and this was 1989 so no mobiles etc. I tried to get the attention of sine people on the street but no one spoke English and my German was limited so I checked the fridge and cupboards and we had plenty of food so I watched ****e German tv and a few videos until Monday night when my mate arrived back.

Or do you suck to relax, now that is the question:D

Chuck Stone

I'm not putting the lotion in the basket.

I've been down a well for months but it's okay because I'm wearing roller-skates and being doused by a sprinkler.

wandatowell

I once spent 2 days in my bed, Only got up to get food which i ate in bed (something i never do) and to go to the jax.

I dunno why i did it. I just lay there watching dvd's and ****.

WittyKitty1

1 week.

Victor

Didn't feel well one Saturday after breakfast, so went back to bed, woke Tuesday. That was a lovely Chinese dinner afterwards.

Banged my head in the first big snow, so only went out once in a week and a bit.

Karona

Just over a week when I had the swine flu. I didn't want to move never mind go outside the first few days but when I started feeling better I was fit to murder someone to go outside.

Essentially the same here, but with added Tomb Raider and Game Of Thrones and a trip to the garage. This is the longest stretch I can recall of not leaving the grounds, other than stays caused by medical conditions.

Had a couple of cataract operations a few years ago, each of which had me housebound for most of a week.

NegativeCreep

3 months while having depression 2 years ago.

Ruudi_Mentari

TeddyTedson

Does the big house count?

RayM

I'm not particularly outgoing, but I don't think I've ever gone more than two days without leaving the house.

aherringterm

A week on average, then go out Friday get horribly ****ed up, return Sunday morn, sleep start over. Love it

chrissb8

Not so much since things picked up for me college and work wise.I did love staying in for 2 or 3 days at a time.I still need that at least once a month.Love my own company, watching tv shows, playing vid games and my drums.Of course big amounts of food can be involved in these days in as well.I like feeling like there isn't a world outside my window sometimes.

I get cabin fevery too.

Thing is, I don't see needing to go out and about for fresh air as not relaxing. You're still not as rushed as you are during a work day, and can potter around at your own pace. Everyone relaxes in their own way!
