I can (easily) go outside with my boyfriend, but i still get the dizzy feeling, after five minutes i start feeling hot and out of breath and weak.. not to forget really ill.. maybe this is because i am unfit because i hardly go out .. im not sure but when i finally stop walking i can feel the blood rush rapidly up my legs and through my body which makes me unbalanced. I never go out without him.

Maybe you do have agoraphobia; maybe not. But you find going outside hard, and that's the main thing. Start at the very bottom (eg standing outside your front door for a few minutes) then greadually, slowy work your way up. It takes time, but you can get there!

If you want a proper diagnosis, then visit your doctor. I know this will be hard for you as you hate leaving your home, but it may be worth the anxiety if only to have a clear answer.

Good luck!
