Agoraphobia

Hello!

I have been struggling with the Agoraphobia for about three years now. I have gone through a lot of emotional and mentally draining times during this with my husband and my family. I know that exposure therapy is supposed to be the best. I try to drive to the end of my neighborhood every day but some days I’m just so tired I make excuses not to do it. I work from home and my faith is very strong and I know that my faith is what gets me through every day. For me, God gives me the strength to keep pushing. I just wanted to say hello and let everyone know you are not alone. I firmly believe that it takes someone with anxiety to truly understand what we go through and it can seem like there is no light but we need to keep pushing.

hi! I’ve also been struggling with agoraphobia for a few years now. Was on medication and doing therapy. I think maybe the medication was not right and maybe even wrong therapist cause she wasn’t really a fan of exposure. I know people who have had good luck with exposure therapy so that’s what I’ve been looking into as well. I’m here if you want to talk
