Self help...Agoraphobia Welcome to my Page devoted to Agoraphobia! Agoraphobia(ag"o-rah-fo'be-ah) A persistent, abnormal fear of open public places or public situations. My Experience with Agoraphobia Symptoms The following is a list of symptoms that a person having a phobic reaction may experience: Tension, nervousness, trembling, nausea, cold or clammy palms, a hot feeling all over the body, profuse sweating, wobbly legs, dry mouth, and shortness of breath. If these symtoms are not relieved, it may lead to a sense of doom, dizziness, visual distortions, faintness, numbness or tingling of hands and feet, and a rapid pulse. At this point, it would be said that the person is having an anxiety or panic attack. The person is not able to think or function. He may even believe that he is having a heart attack. Causes Agoraphobia is caused by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors. A number of experts in the field of anxiety and panic disorders believe that there is a biological cause related to a chemical imbalance in the person's brain or body. Other possible causes include: High-stress lifestyles, childhood trauma, use of stimulants and/or recreational drugs, and some medical conditions such as hype-thyroidism, hypoglycemia, mineral and vitamin deficiencies, allergic reactions and inner ear disturbances. Road Blocks to Recovery Avoiding situations makes the phobic person doubt his ability ever to handle the situation. Having negative self-conversations, increases worry and can lead to panic attacks.

Agoraphobia is the intense fear of situations that may be difficult or embarrassing to leave. People with this phobia worry that they will not be able to get somewhere safe. They often worry about having a panic attack or panic symptoms like dizziness, vomiting, loss of control, or difficulty breathing. Sufferers usually fear large places like malls, theaters, grocery stores, or parks. They also fear large crowds or places where they feel trapped like traveling on a plane, driving in rush hour traffic, being on a bridge, or visiting the doctor. Usually, a person with agoraphobia can articulate what they fear or where they fear it. Although, sometimes they only know that they have a sense of dread. The person will begin to avoid the situations where he or she feels uncomfortable. Agoraphobia can worsen without treatment; in some extreme cases, that person can become trapped in his or her own home because he or she is too fearful to leave. Sometimes, the person can participate in activities or travel if a trusted companion goes with him or her.

Resources Definition The word agoraphobia is derived from Greek words literally meaning "fear of the marketplace." The term is used to describe an irrational and often disabling fear of being out in public. Description Agoraphobia is just one type of phobia, or irrational fear. People with phobias feel dread or panic when they face certain objects, situations, or activities. People with agoraphobia frequently also experience panic attacks, but panic attacks, or panic disorder, are not a requirement for a diagnosis of agoraphobia. The defining feature of agoraphobia is anxiety about being in places from which escape might be embarrasing or difficult, or in which help might be unavailable. The person suffering from agoraphobia usually avoids the anxiety-provoking situation and may become totally housebound. Causes and symptoms Agoraphobia is the most common type of phobia, and it is estimated to affect between 5-12% of Americans within their lifetime. Agoraphobia is twice as common in women as in men and usually strikes between the ages of 15-35.

76. Go Ask Alice!: Help For Agoraphobia HELP FOR agoraphobia. Dear Alice,. I have suffered from agoraphobia sincethe age of thirteen. I am now twenty. I have tried hypnotherapy http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/1886.html

HELP FOR AGORAPHOBIA Dear Alice, I have suffered from agoraphobia since the age of thirteen. I am now twenty. I have tried hypnotherapy counseling and psychologists and herbal tablets, but nothing seems to help me. Please, can you help a young, outgoing twenty-year-old who wants to start living! Dear Reader, Agoraphobia is a panic disorder, characterized by intense anxiety about being in places that would be difficult to escape, or where it might be embarrassing to experience symptoms of panic. For example, many people with agoraphobia fear leaving their homes alone, being in a crowd or standing in a line, being on a bridge, or traveling in various vehicles. Sometimes agoraphobia is experienced as a distinct condition, where one fears fainting, being trapped, having diarrhea in a public place, or otherwise feeling helpless and not receiving assistance. More commonly, agoraphobia occurs in people who also experience panic attacks. Panic attacks are intense feelings of fear and often doom, which usually build and peak within about ten minutes of onset. Some of the most typical symptoms include: chest pain and/or heart palpitations trembling feeling faint or dizzy shortness of breath or difficulty catching your breath fear of dying loss of control excessive sweating feeling nauseated These attacks can be terrifying and physically overwhelming (people experiencing panic attacks often rush to the emergency room convinced that they are having a heart attack). Sometimes the attacks are prompted by a particular experience, and sometimes they are unprovoked. Once a person has had some panic attacks, they may begin to fear having one in public and thus develop an additional panic reaction to these situations, and therefore, agoraphobia.

PAX The organisation for people who suffer from panic attacks, agoraphobia, In 1990 The Royal College of Psychiatrists reported that more than nine million Britons will suffer from abnormal anxiety and fears at some time in their lives. My name is Alice Neville. In 1966 I founded THE OPEN DOOR the first self-help organisation in the world for people suffering from agoraphobia, a problem that had affected my own life from childhood to my mid-twenties when I overcame it altogether. Very soon we had 4,000 members, and the late Dr. Claire Weekes, Author of Self Help For Your Nerves came over from Australia to help and advise us, treating numbers of our members, lecturing all over Britain, appearing on TV, radio and writing articles for our newsletters. Because of family and career commitments I later handed over the running of TOD to the members themselves. Some years later I wrote a book (now out of print) entitled Who's Afraid of Agoraphobia? 10,000 copies were sold almost immediately and one of the first reactions was that many people suffered from panic attacks but were not necessarily agoraphobic. Others who contacted me were suffering from social phobia which until then I had always considered to be part of the agoraphobia syndrome. The result was a new book called just Who's Afraid...?
