Do I have agoraphobia?!
Question: Do I have agoraphobia!?
I'm terrified of going outside, I haven't used a bus in 4 years!. I can't go in to town or cinema I'm a teen so it's embarrassing my friends always ask me but I always say no!. When I start to even think of going out my hands start to sweat and breathing goes heavy!. My dad always thinks I'm been stubborn but when he took me out once my breathing got heavy and I started to panic!. I'm just terrified especially of town and shopping centers it's getting worse!. Please help thanks for commenting!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

One psychologist I visited suggested to me after describing the same symptoms!. I'm not an agoraphobe any more!. I was for one year, never stepped foot outside!. I'm a teen as well!. Had to drop out of school for a year!. If you need to chat with someone, I'm here!. My e-mail is ifalter, as is my Yahoo Messenger!. I've been out of agoraphobia for a few months!.!.!.I have no friends, lol!. Lost every one during my agoraphobia, good riddance, most of them, though!.

It seems like you may be developing it!. Full blown agoraphobia generally presents with an intense fear of leaving the house at all!.
My suggestion would be to start some therapy to help you work through it!. If it gets really severe (to the point where you can't leave the house, or if you just feel that it's really bad), you can try medication if you want, but I would recommend that only after therapy and only if it's not working well without it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I can't diagnose you but it sounds like you do have it!. I myself have it!. See if your dad can take you to the dr!. Also I suggested the "agoraphobia workbook" it's available on amazon!.com!. I purchased it and it is really helping me!. The best part you can do it on your own and you don't need meds!. Hang in there but seek help now or will only get worse!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
