Hi Im Jodie, im 17 years old and under the influence of Agoraphobia, which all started from panic attacks.
Its been getting a little better with a lot of effort, but im still finding it all really difficult to deal with.
Its so frustrating not being able to do what you want to do and go where you want to go, because the fear is so BIG.
My doctor has suggested Cognitive Therapy, has anybody been there, done that and got the T-shirt to prove it, kind of thing? Does anybody have any information that they could share with me? please please please!
I am meant to be going away on holiday in August, and I would really love to go, but thats a big thing to be able to do in the space of 5 months, anyone who has any tips for a successful holiday, please let me know!
Im so glad to have found out about this website, and its amazing to know that in reality, we are actually not alone.
I look forward to meeting new people
Love from Jodie xxxx
