Welcome messedup,
you will find support and friends here. We are all here for one illness or another.
Matter of fact I have depression and BPD too!

The great thing is that these things can be changed, controlled. Are you in any kind
of program? Therapist, Dx? They can help alot.

This is a good bunch of people, helping, info and letting you know you are alone.
peace to you,
Red

Hello everyone,

I joined the forum because I wanted to get help with my agoraphobia, or at least find others who I can relate to. I chose this discussion board out of several that I reviewed because I like the way you handle things here. There seems to be a lot of help and support, and I know that is what people are seeking.

Funny thing though, after reading posts in the agoraphobia and the social anxiety forums, I think my 20-year diagnosis of agoraphobia is actually social anxiety. All this time, I thought I had that "fear of open spaces" and TODAY I realized that it is the fear of people, not of marketplaces in and of themselves.

So now, I'm confused because my fear of going outside my apartment and being alone around people may be something totally different than what I had thought. But, this is a good thing, because no matter what it's called, I still have the same symptoms. I can work with the symptoms to define my problem and find a solution.

Anyway, "hello" and thanks for being here!
