Hello everyone

Hi everyone

I'm new to this forum. I have suffered from anxiety for about 8 years and I have been agoraphobic for the last 2 years. My name is Chris, I'm 36 and I would like to hear from people in the same situation.

All the best

Hi Chris. I have had serious problems with anxiety for the last 2 years and am agoraphobic also. I went out yesterday to the bank and had planned on doing several other errands but ended up coming home after the bank. I hear that I'm suppose to feel good that I got out and accomplished something but I don't feel good about the fact that I was anxious the whole time I was driving. Kind of felt like a failure for not being able to function like others. My husband had to run the rest of my errands.

So do you get out much? What kind of things do you like to do? I read a lot, work in the yard, sit around the house with my dogs, bake and on weekends my husband and I go to our cabin. Really exciting life huh?

Take care
Vikki
