Hi I am new and don't like it...

[Pryscil]

Hi everyone I don't like being a newbie..I feel lost but I think this board can help me with some of my concerns.I have been suffering from anxiety since I can remember.I do suffer a lot and they have not yet been able to settle me down on meds because I am very sensitive to them.I am mostly worried about my health.I also suffer from agoraphobia as I can't leave the house without someone with me that I feel safe with.
Hope to get comfortable here.Pretzel

Hey Pretzel

Welcome aboard! We are all in the same or similar boat here, and you will find lots of help and advice. You are with lots of friends now who understand.

I have agorophobia too, and I can only go 2 places on my own, need people with me anywhere else, esp. shops. You are not alone.

Love and Hugs

Hi,

I have been growing/cultivating agoraphobia for the past 30 years. Although not house bound I have been. I am more neighbourhood bound. Trying to stretch my comfort zone a little further. One step forwad, one back some days are better than others. When I could not walk past the garden gate in the daytime. I tried at night. I do not know why but it worked so after a few night time journeys time for the daytime ones. I now cycle to work, so when I have an attack I have something to lean on and push till the attack ceases.

I hope this site helps you to develope and find your own solutions.
