I mean, certainly it's a form of panic. But it's also a phobia of the outside world at the same time. I have to say, I think people who suffer from Agoraphobia don't really care WHAT category they're in. They just want to not feel afraid anymore. My advice to those out there with agoraphobia is this... Your mind will come up with reasons why it believes only a certain area is safe and another is not. Those reasons range from being near the phone or people you trust to having familiar physical surroundings to reassure you. The truth is, anywhere you are is equally safe. The anxiety in your mind is the only thing that distinguishes a place as bad or good, fun or miserable, happy or sad. Controlling the anxiety will change your perspective on the world around you and you will see all places as being equally comfortable. It all starts with babysteps... -taking your dog for a walk in your front yard. -having a cup of tea in your backyard. -going outside in the morning to get the paper -getting a cup of coffee at a quickie mart nearby. All these little acts of courage add up. Take 1 risk everyday to start overcoming your agoraphobia.

It doesn't have to be by anyone with training or anything like that...I have just always loved it. I have searched high and low all over the web to find someone to do this for me at my home...I would gladly pay. But can't find anyone. I don't have to be hurting--I just love it.
