So not sure if this is all that active. The worst part of agoraphobia is wanting to be around people yet at the same time not wanting to it's an extremely lonely feeling especially when you have trust issues.

Please be kind ✌

I can leave my house and go to a store, walk or a pub..but if I'm with others, and new people especially..I feel im going to panic. I believe I read it's a form of Agoraphobia. So I'll decline trips that are further away with friends, and I even get a twinge of panic walking with someone else. Like am I going to feel trapped. I know it's from decades of trauma and being told I have no rights. That I needed to accept whatever happened to me. My parent was cruel and these oppressive ideas made me very anxious and scared as an adult. Do you have this form of Agoraphobia?
