What are PANIC & AGORAPHOBIA?:
Agoraphobia often, but not always, coincides with Panic Disorder. Agoraphobia is characterized by a fear of having a panic attack in a place from which escape is difficult. In a mild form, sufferers are uncomfortable or nervous about something bad happening to them (like getting severely ill, fainting, losing control, or embarrassing themselves) in situations where they can't escape or get help (like being alone in a far away unfamiliar place, or trapped in a crowd, or a wide open mall or empty park, or elevator, subway, or driving on an express highway, or home alone). They may limit their traveling alone or require that a partner accompany them. In the most extreme form, these situations might make the person feel like they will die or go crazy, and many severe sufferers refuse to leave their homes, often for years at a time. Others develop a fixed route, or territory, from which they cannot deviate, for example the route between home and work. It becomes impossible for these people to travel alone beyond what they consider to be their safety zones without suffering severe anxiety.
Fortuntely, there is very effective treatment for panic and agoraphobia, possibly without medication, and you can be hopeful of overcoming your anxiety and living a normal peaceful life. (The contents of the Anxiety Hotline and any email correspondence from Dr. Brodsky is not, nor should it be construed as, treatment.)
