Agoraphobia Support Group

so true

oh my goodness. I just thought of a great show that I used to watch that had an agoraphobic! The show was October Road and I think it only ran for one season. The agoraphobic was great-a very good character It might be on netflix

"Stepping Into the Sunlight" by Sharon Hinck

"The Almost Moon" by Alice Sebold

Has anyone seen the movie, I Am Sam? It's a great movie all the way around but there is an agoraphobic woman in that movie. His friend that lives in the apartment building.

Also....Paula Deen's autobiography is good, she tells about her years with agoraphobia.

Movie: Castaway on the Moon

It's a really good South Korean movie that deals with agoraphobia. I highly recommend it. The heroine is an agoraphobic that has a routine in place that immolated mine enough that I really connected to her. It also isolates the hero on an island in the middle of the river, and because of his fear of swimming he can not rescue himself. It's a really interesting take on the subject, and the focus of the movie, rather than a character point.

I've been spending my time watching/catching up on my K-dramas, and low and behold the first one I begin watching has an agoraphobic character! I feel like the world is allowing me to feel as if I relate to people outside of the forum, even if they are fictional. I like the idea of having hope.

It's called Flower Boy Next Door.
