I Plan To Chronicle My Escape!

Hi, my name is Adrian. Ive suffered through cycles of agoraphobia for some time.

I'm about to start some aggressive therapy and plan to Chronicle it in a monthly zine for 1 year. I'm curious what others think about this? I'm a photographer and writer who has slowly succumbed to agoraphobia and I think I could use my skills to not only help myself but others.

Do you think this is a good idea? Am ...

housebound

People call me lazy and irresposible for missing appointments and not going to family things. I'll try with all I am but I fear them. I am terrified to leave my house. I dread being around people. I take public transportation to my dr appointments and it's the hardest thing for me. It's very hard to understand someone with agoraphobia when you don't have it. I isolate instead of cling to others. (does anyone else ...

New to agoraphobia... Help

I have become extremely anxious and had trouble going to work this past spring. since I've been off I have barely left my house and become agoraphobic like my dad. I was on Buspar and it didn't help. I then tried lexapro and within 20 minutes after taking my first pill I was sitting on my bed hysterically crying and rocking. Tried citalopram and that made me vomiting frequently going to the bathroom, stomach cramps, ...

New and Need Help

Hello, I'm new to the forum....I've had crippling anxiety, PTSD, and agoraphobia for at least 5 years, to the point where fear completely runs my life, I can no longer hold a job, and have had to go on disability. I've been on countless meds, which my body is very resistant to -- none have helped, which adds to my feeling of hopelessness. I feel like "me" is gone -- even leaving my apartment to ...

how to overcome agoraphobia without drugs

Forget the medical definitions of agoraphobia, this is how it feels -

The day begins with the dread of realizing that you were dreaming and now you are again faced with the reality of your agoraphobic life. Each day sort of blends together, you know that you should be bored siting inside your house all day, but you aren't, this had become your normal. Yesterday is a blur and tomorrow feels like a year away. ...

Hi, I'm new here and I suffer from agoraphobia. I've been going through it for most of my life but have been going through it severely over the last couple of years.

Is this crisis, agoraphobia?

I feel that my entire world has shrunk down to a tiny apartment that I rent out. I never would have thought that it would become my whole world. There is really nothing special about this apartment.

I'm finding it harder and harder to even open the door of the apartment to check the mail outside the door, much less leave to go out somewhere. I've come to the point that just the sound of ...

cycles of agoraphobia

Hi,

Just would like to say that I am new to the forum, so hi! :)

I had absolutely no idea that I had agoraphobia until this year at the age of 39. Although I knew that I suffered with complex social integration in my 20s and parts of my 30s; I would never have at all considered myself agoraphobic.

Possibly the reason for this, is that ...
