i've been agoraphobic on and off for a few years now and i'm only 19. I can't pinpoint when it started, but it's been pretty bad ever since.
I havn't left my apartment now for about a year except to go for rides with friends every once in a while, and only about a mile away from my place and then back. I won't get out of the car.
I live with my mom and my "boyfriend", and i'm a pretty social person. i don't mind meeting new people, and i like to drink and have a good time.
Every once in a while i get severely depressed, especially when i think that it's possible i might never leave my house again.
Right now i'm not on any medication because i can't afford it and i have no health insurance, So i'm in the process of trying to get on SSI.
I was wondering if anyone else is in the same situation where they can't leave the house at all, and if anyone has any advice.
thanks so much.
