Your doctor should know about this. I use to have it and it usually starts out by having panic attacks and you are so fearful of making a fool of yourself in public you prefer to stay indoors. Agoraphobia in Greek means: Fear of the Market Place. YOU HAVE AGORAPHOBIA IF: You are afraid to leave your home. Afraid to go out with friends or even have family members or friends over for a visit. It's a trapped feeling and a fearful one. Terrified of talking on the phone and a deep fear of being made fun of or ridiculed. You can't work or go to school or college. There is help for panic attacks and Agoraphobia (medications to help you get over the hump) and psychiatry to help you cope and believe me, it works! I'm living proof. It's a condition and you are not going crazy or insane. The sooner you get help for this condition the quicker you will get better. The Stats prove that they are extremely high in the U.S., Canada, England and Ireland. Please go to: www.Google.com TYPE IN: What is Agoraphobia This will give you all sorts of information and help. Good luck hon Marcy
