Question: What do you call when a person have DEEP anxiety to go outdoors/outside?
A person that is afraid to go outside..

A person that is afraid of the "real world."

A person who is afraid of sunlight..

A person who is afraid of people.

And a person who is afraid of loud noises..

I think these are put in different catalogs.. It would be nice if you can name all of them, so I can continue my research.
