I suffer from Agoraphobia which seems to have been an outgrowth of my Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Panic Disorder. I am so sorry that you bear that burden. Heavy burden sometimes.

Exposure therapy helped me quite a bit but agoraphobia sometimes still affects me. For example, I went on a 7 hour car trip with friends and often felt like a prisoner since others were doing the driving and I had no real way out.

I think there are degrees of Agoraphobia since some people suffer mildly and others are crushed by it. I know of someone who has not left their house in 5 years, won't go to doctor and dental appointments and has their food delivered to them. I hope it doesn't afflict you to that extent.

I seldom go out anymore because I am almost 70 and have numerous health and mobility issues. I was very nervous about exposure therapy, but to be honest, I tend to be nervous about everything. Hopefully this therapy will prove very helpful to you.

Maybe you would care to share your journey with us here on the Forums. It would certainly help me and others who struggle. It is nice to know that one isn't alone with one's particular struggles. I am rooting for you.
