I have agoraphobia... it started a little over a year ago but right now it's worse than ever. I have faith that I can beat it with medication... without meds I'd probably be hopeless right now. I leave the house probably 3 times a week for 20 minutes right now... mostly at night when the streets are more empty
My panic attacks make me physically ill and I'm terrified of throwing up so I can't leave the house at all. It's been 3 weeks of me being inside almost 7 days a week. I'm waiting to see my psychiatrist to get a refill on my klonopin and then hopefully venture out...
I am on SSI but I still live with my parents. I can't go to therapy anymore because I can't go more than a block from my home. Agoraphobia is hell on earth but I have a strong will to survive
My body is suffering, my stomach constantly hurts and I take tums and even dramamine. I get very little exercise which sucks because I love being active... all I do to exercise is crunches/push ups in my room and walking up and down the stairs of my building. I am afraid to eat most things besides bread and I drink like 10 cups of herbal tea a day to calm my nerves. I am 21 years old and almost housebound because of my panic attacks. But I will beat this
P.S. I know exposure therapy is the only way I can beat this, I tried going out to the post office and I had the worst panic attack I've had in months which really set me back...
