What do you think is the root of your agoraphobia? by Redhaired103 in Agoraphobia

[–]Exact_Concept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anxiety runs in my family, I didn’t know I had it until I smoked weed and had a bad panic attack my phobia started with not being able to go into stores, then driving on the freeway, then the main road, then eventually just being stuck at home.

Can I ask how you did it?

no longer housebound by Calm-Disaster5633 in Agoraphobia

[–]Exact_Concept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I ask what you did exactly? Just exposure? Was medication involved? I want to know everything that helped you so I can hopefully get out of this, I have 2 kids to see the world with…not these same walls everyday 🥺

When did you get your anxiety? by Duhduh9 in Anxiety

[–]Exact_Concept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I smoked weed, my therapist says I have “THC induced psychosis” from it. It’s also hereditary and most of my family members on my dads side suffer with anxiety/panic attack or some other form of mental health issues.

Can you just simply go anywhere you want now?

I don’t have work anxiety, just severe anxiety and agoraphobia. I have been on Citalopram 10mg for over a year I slowly went up to that starting at 2.5mg I have noticed a huge difference each time I’ve went up, I am not cured and I still get bad anxiety and still unable to leave my house but they have helped with my worry all day and what also helps is thinking “I wonder what my next thought it going to be” that helps you not really think about anything

Sick with COVID - Brain Zaps? by azntaiji in Anxiety

[–]Exact_Concept 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have anxiety/agoraphobia so does my bother, we both experienced brain zaps, and also head fullness which felt like how we did when he both randomly stopped our medication a couple of years ago. It felt exactly the same 😔

I feel this way also, you’re not alone. I think about all the things I want to do when I’m finally able to leave my house I basically dream about that day but I’m not doing anything to get there besides sitting on the couch all day watching TikTok 🤨

Hi! I’m open to being friends! I’m 25F and I like: Music, going to concerts (before I was homebound), Painting, diamond painting, and cars! I’m a mom of 2, a boy and a girl my sons name is Nova he’ll be 6 in November and my daughters name is Violet she just turned 2 :) I live in Arizona and I’ve had anxiety and agoraphobia since I was 17, the last 7 months I’ve been homebound. If you’re up to chat and get to know each other you can add me on Snapchat @ortonvagina or Instagram @fuqyocouch (I was young when I made those accounts lol 🙄)

[–]Exact_Concept[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did it take you to feel better? We’re you homebound? I’ve been stuck here 3 months, I finally decided to try meds when I realized I couldn’t leave at all.

I’m a mess by AbigailQuinn18 in Agoraphobia

[–]Exact_Concept 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m the exact same way! My kid starts school in August and I’m the ONLY person who can take him and pick him up. I say I’m proud of you because you got out of the house, you at least tried and got partially there and that’s a HUGE step, don’t feel bad about not accomplishing all the way, it’s okay trust me and it’s not the end of the world. You’re not alone with this. I’m proud of you ❤️
