I have had agoraphobia for years and health anxiety. I do not do anything fun usually work then home my husband takes the kids to do things but I can't seem to get my self to leave the house. Does anyone suffer from this or have any ideas that might help me get my life back?

I honesty do 😕 I can't be in car cause I feel like I'm go crazy I hate it so much . . But staying in the house only makes things worse cause you over think everything which has trapped me a lot , now I'm going through depression I don't know how overcome it I made doctor appointment on 24th cause I need help . . I trap myself at home so much as if this my comfort zone its bad.

I'm the same way I go to work and home that's about it. If any one even asked me about going somewhere I freak out. I feel trapped and scared. I have so many physical symptoms and sometimes I just sit in bed and cry.

I have severe social phobia. Anywhere I go I have to wear my sunglasses. (Indoors) Grocery shopping, doctor appointments, family gatherings. I cannot make eye contact with anyone or I have a panic attack. And it's really hard for me to conversate. It's so embarrassing and life ruining.

Anytime I have to be around my husbands family I have to be drunk. It really sucks.

Lately I've been having problems keeping eye contact with my own husband and I've been with him for 10 years!

I do especially health anxiety it drowns and consumes me I have no life although I'm a bubbly outgoing person I'm a mess when I get like this i can't hold a job down because when I get one I get all agrophobic anxious panicky and my mind does overtime and I end up going on sick for months and end up losing my jobs. Hope your not suffering too much
