Agoraphobia is awful and misunderstood. I was agoraphobic for a year after a traumatic incident with police. In fact unless my husband had to drive me somewhere I never left the house. Only under my canopy in the backyard.
My T at the time and psyche used exposure therapy and after 9 months I was 95% better.

people half my age have probably done everything I just listede plus more- and it makes me sad that when I come to the end of my life, what do I have to show for it?

I don't even have friends to take me to these places, because firstly my extreme intriversion, secondly all my issues. I carry a lot of baggage and no one really wants that in a friendship

plus I don't have family support, so can't turn to them either
