Hi, lostone, welcome to PsychCentral.

Wow, that takes a lot of energy! I was interested in your statement that you are depressed because of the "boredom" of agoraphobia. I hate being bored almost worst than anything and would rather be scared.

Have you ever tried going for broke and dismantling everything, sheets and all? It doesn't sound like your safeguards help you much? I'd do the opposite, just to have something "different" happen. Can you go out with your husband or kids or anything? I can do more things with others than I can alone.

When did you start having these troubles? Do you have a doctor or therapist you see? Your situation sounds really uncomfortable.
