I have not traveled this far in over a year. Just a week ago i was able to get to San Francisco which is about 30 minutes away, I had trouble doing this previously because the bay bridge makes me feel uneasy, just the fact thats it the only way in and out. traffic makes me panic as well.

I've had agoraphobia for almost a year now and I only ever leave the house once every three weeks to see my psychologist down the road and I still die when I do that. I can hardly talk to anyone for days after I see her. I feel so alone and helpless all the time. And I feel so bad for my boyfriend because i'm always sad and having panic attacks when he comes over, but he never gives up on me. I don't want to take medication so I was wondering if anyone's g...

But I have come up with a few ways to cope with my agoraphobia. I am 17 and realized not too long ago that if I want any kind of a future I need a job. I had been in and out of high school because I couldn't handle the possibility of embarrassing myself all the time. But I'm back in and pushing through it, along with starting my first job real soon.. All because of 3 things.. 1 I have a really good support ...

My son was diagnosed with Agoraphobia a year ago. After being diagnosed he attempted to take his life. He was put on a 72 hour hold and then released. After that was a big legal battle regarding him being a delenquent or an Agoraphobic. Thou court won and he was taken away from me and placed into residential treatment.(where they dont treat agoraphobics)In the end I got him back home and he seemed to be doing fine on his medication.
