Agoraphobic fears typically involve characteristic clusters of situations that include being outside the home alone; being in a crowd or standing in a line; being on a bridge; and traveling in a bus, train, or automobile. The situations are avoided (e.g., travel is restricted) or else are endured with marked distress or with anxiety about having a

Feedback Introduction: Agoraphobia Agoraphobia: Agoraphobia is often called "fear of open spaces" but this description is simplistic and misleading. Agoraphobia is like an unreasonable fear or anxiety associated with unfamiliar surroundings or situations, but this description also oversimplifies a complex issue. In some cases, agoraphobia arises associated with panic attacks from panic disorder , and the fear of places or situations occurs when these were the triggers of the panic attacks. In other words, agoraphobia becomes like a "fear of having another panic attack" or a fear of anything or anywhere that might trigger a panic attack. A vicious cycle sets in where anxiety or fear of certain places or situations make a panic attack more likely to occur, which in turn raises the anxiety level. Whatever its description, agoraphobia can be not only emotionally stressing, it can actually become debilitating, leading to a life of self-imposed isolation.

Health Topics Category Index Health Topics for Mental and Emotional Health Department of Psychiatry Send comments and questions to staff@uihealthcare.com University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa Agoraphobia Agoraphobia literally means "fear of the marketplace." Now the term has come to mean fear of being out alone away from home. People with agoraphobia are terrified about being in places they associate with anxiety or panic. People with agoraphobia often have another disorder known as panic disorder. Panic attacks are severe spontaneous episodes of anxiety that can make people feel like they are dying, losing control or going crazy. To avoid anxiety and panic attacks, people with agoraphobia usually begin to avoid going far from home by themselves. They may avoid crowds, stores, public transportation or parks. Sometimes people with agoraphobia are able to face situations that make them anxious if someone they trust is with them. People with agoraphobia try to avoid situations that frighten them. Sometimes they are able to force themselves into a situation, even though they are still very uncomfortable. It is often very difficult at first for people with agoraphobia to come to appointments with their doctor or therapist. Some people with agoraphobia will use alcohol or drugs to try to control the anxiety.

PAX 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. No Fear The latest book by Alice Neville Available now Pax is the Latin word for peace. Peace of mind is what we all hope for. In 1966 I founded what was probably the first phobia organisation in the world. The Open Door . Later this became PAX and included panic attacks and other anxiety disorders. From childhood until my mid-twenties I suffered from agoraphobia; not a fear of open spaces as it was generally to be but much nearer to the original definition of the Greek term 'fear of the market place' or place of assembly. In fact it is really a fear of the feeling of fear which manifests itself in a variety of situations. Open spaces, confined spaces, crowds, church, shops, school - anywhere inside or outside where feelings of anxiety arise and there is an overpowering need to escape immediately. We now know that thousands of people experience acute feelings of anxiety escalating to almost unbearable proportions. If these anxiety, or 'panic' attacks keep recurring the sufferer is said to have 'panic disorder' and because they have become a habit of occurring in the same situations this becomes 'classic' agoraphobia. BOOKS I have written books about these problems, the first

INCUBUS LYRICS "Agoraphobia" Two people touching lips Hands on each other's hips Nothing else in the world but one another The 42nd floor On a distant shore I wonder how we strayed so far from this Remember when we were Just flesh and bone. You sir, May have forgotten how good your world could be So, put down your hollow tips And kiss your lovers lips And know that fate is what you make of it Please end this Before it ends us Ends us I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside For good I read the news today And everything they say Just makes me want to stay inside And a better part of me knows That waiting in the throes Is all on par with reading with my eyes closed "What Can I do?", You say It's just another day In the life of Apes with ego trips Put down your hollow tips And kiss your lover's lips And know that fate is what we make of it Please end this Before it ends us Ends us I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside For good I'm gonna stay inside I'm gonna stay inside for good I'm gona stay inside For Good I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside Don't want to stay inside for good For good [Thanks to imnotdaniel@hotmail.com for these lyrics]

93. ENcourage: What Is Agoraphobia? Many people who suffer from panic attacks go on to develop agoraphobia, It is this avoidance behavior that distinguishes agoraphobia from panic disorder http://www.encourageconnection.com/whatisagora.html

Many people who suffer from panic attacks go on to develop agoraphobia, a severely handicapping disorder that often prevents its victims from leaving their homes unless accompanied by a friend or relativea "safe" person. The first panic attack may follow some stressful event, such as a serious illness or the death of a loved one. (The agoraphobic often doesn't make this connection, though.) Fearing more attacks, the person develops a more-or-less continual state of anxiety, anticipating the next attack, avoiding situations where he would be helpless if a panic attack occurred. It is this avoidance behavior that distinguishes agoraphobia from panic disorder. Two different types of anxiety appear to afflict the person with agoraphobiapanic and the "anticipatory anxiety" engendered by expectations of future panic attacks. If you have agoraphobia, chances are it developed something like this: One ordinary day, while tending to some chore, taking a walk, driving to workin other words, just going about your usual businessyou were suddenly struck by a wave of awful terror. Your heart started pounding, you trembled, you perspired profusely, and you had difficulty catching your breath. You became convinced that something terrible was happening to you, maybe you were going crazy, maybe you were having a heart attack, maybe you were about to die. You desperately sought safety, reassurance from your family, treatment at a clinic or emergency room. Your doctor could find nothing wrong with you, so you went about your business, until a panic attack struck again. As the attacks became more frequent, you spent more and more time thinking about them. You worried, watched for danger and waited with fear for the next one to hit.
