That sucks. I feel for you. My wife does not like busy stores at all either. We like to go during the day when there's not a lot of people there.

hmm yeah, that was my problem at the beginning. now i
cannot drive alone into the city and that really sucks.
but it's the job. you don't have to go out and this supports
the agoraphobia and it grows.... nah, i don't need peps
to feel with me :) i only wanna hear if there are more
peoples with this problem...

agoraphobia...

Well think about it.
I hear gun shots in my neighborhood about 1 time every week.
I mean I am pretty certain they are as sirens are heard shortly after sometimes. SO lets just say maybe there is a shooting every 2 weeks within a 3 mile viscinity of my abode.

Not good.

Lets think about automobiles and traffic on the streets. Out here in LA morons abound and most people drive like fucken retards out here. I see an accident EVERY WEEK within a 3 Mile viscinity.

Not good.

The number of noutzo's on the street are increasing. I see a psycho bum at least 1 time a week screaming at car's and threatening violence on the corner. Sometimes its the same bum other times not but one thing they got in common is they will not stop to herass you for somthing whether with a kind face or ugly face.

Not Good.

I do not know about you or where your from but some might call it agoraphobia however ya might just wanna think about it all logically and arrive to conclusion that familier surroundings and home are some of the safest places to be in.

Most accidents occur outside the home of course its fact. However ya perpetuate the odd's and put your life in danger knowing the possiiblity of harm is greater when in an area where people tend to be thoughtless and accident prone. Or worse yet go out into the day with the intention of hurting someone.

Not good.

I do not trust people in general enough to be amoung them often and only do so when I have to be. AM I agoraphobic? Fuck yeah but at least I know what my odd's are day to day within my own viscinity and the level risk outside these days.

Seriously? Talk to your doctor. There are medicines that can help you. From one you take occasionally when you are doing something like flying on a plane or going to mom's for Christmas, to one you take daily. Or both.

Then it's all about slow exposure. If you can't drive into the city alone. Get in the car and practice driving close to the city. Each time try to go a little further and push yourself just a little bit more.

I had a rough time, but I'm getting better. I still wouldn't say that I'm "cured" but I'm doing a lot more than I was last year at this time. It's a daily thing though. I have to keep reminding myself that I won't die if I push myself. It may be uncomfortable sometimes, but I do posess the tools I need to get through that rough time and next time it will be easier.
