Agoraphobia and Soclal Phobia

[zawza1990]

Agoraphobia is a little more complex than that - it is the fear of being in any situation where things could go wrong without the chance to escape or get help.

Initially ,it started as a little unease when people visited the house and developed into a situation where she could not go into a shop a bank or any public place without full-blown panic attack symptoms. Her heart would pound and she would feel sick and sweat all over, almost fainting at the thought of having to go and buy a loaf of bread. She also became more and more distressed at people visiting her home. Whether her symptoms were those of social phobia and or agoraphobia was never medically diagnosed. What was worse for her, was the youngest of her children was beginning to copy her behaviour in social situations and this was the final prompt for her to take action. Her doctor had given her medication but she didn't find it helped change anything in these difficult situations, just dulling the panic attack symptoms.
