Scared of blood pressure being taken!
I also have
agoraphobia
, and I really don't like being too far from home. The doctor's isn't far, but it's at a time that I don't usually go out. Close to 5pm, when I usually only go out between 8-11am due to not many people and I feel less anxiety in the morning.

Can't decide which brand to continue with. Started with Wockhardt, followed by Actavis
(Do note, I can't hardly do anything like go for walk etc, so housebound most of the time, but was managing the odd shop before Levo, this is due to CFS and
agoraphobia
that was present before thyroid issues).

I don't know if this is anxiety related, but it's making my anxiety worse. Fluttering stomach and feeling bloated.
I'm scared of going to the doctors, partly to do with my
agoraphobia
of going out of my comfort zone and also my social anxiety. But also my health anxiety too, I'm always thinking the worst of things. My anxiety has made me feel sick at times too, and has given me diarrhea at times.

Anyone else get agoraphobia occasionally?
I keep hearing "join a gym" "join a class" "go for a run". However simply going to the shops to buy food is terrifying me. I wish I could do all these things but I just feel I can't leave the house at the moment unless I have to. I've been waiting for people to call round so I can walk to the shops with

My anxiety and I
together the opening to my stomach was a lot smaller, scarred and sore so when I did try and eat non mushed/liquidated food it couldn't physically get in my stomach so I'd have to bring it back up and this terrified me the pain was excruciating and my panic disorder started, after months of panic,

Sorry to be bombarding this site, but I feel so useless at the moment. I feel weak and ineffectual and filled with dread.
I suffer from
agoraphobia
, ocd and anxiety, but until recently they were all manageable. I only travel within certain parameters so the
agoraphobia
was largely ignored, but I'd really tried to challenge my ocd. well, some parts of it anyway.

Really struggling. I am totally lost. Help!
I lost weight (5lbs), my cough was gone, I was no longer 'depressed' (I still have the
agoraphobia
) so I managed to persuade him to carry on with the 125, asked him about my cholesterol which had gone down to 8 from 10, and then he looked at my X-ray and told me "Your chest is clear.

Helping my friend has made me feel great. I want to get out the house every day but finding a reason can be hard. I really want to do more.
I felt quite anxious this morning whilst still in bed I think I have mild
agoraphobia
I also live alone. But as soon as I got out the house I started to feel better.

Mirtazapine... Lack of energy and weight gain.
I suffer from social anxiety, GAD and
agoraphobia
. I've had anxiety issues since April 2011. I was on Lustral 50mg during last year, but I came off August. This is when everything took a turn for the worse, and I'm now on Mirtazapine 30mg. I have been on this since October.

MIND
I was left with slight
agoraphobia
, which makes it difficult to stand at open bus stops, go for long walks, and has stopped me running. I am going to defeat my anxiety by running on behalf of MIND, the 13 miles of the great North Run to defeat my
agoraphobia
.

At the end of my tether.
I have an appointment for therapy in early april that feels impossible to attend, due to my
agoraphobia
and nausea. I've been unable to attend doctor's appointments, and family planning appointments, despite knowing how important these things are.
