There are two kinds of past memory. Ancient and recent and they do slightly different things in terms of anxiety. Ancient memory is what built the core beliefs that dictate mood, attitude, and how you do things. (perception) Because there has been a lot of repetition from recent memory basically following the guidelines they set, it is strong. It is also appropriate in your minds thinking. Recent memory is what upgrades your core beliefs but it is also directed by them so it takes conscious effort to change. The tendency dictated by core beliefs is to do things the way they were. This isn't good if you have always been anxious as I was. My core beliefs said this is appropriate because it is how it always was. I thought I was different because I was is all. But because recent memory upgrades ancient memory to stay current, by making a conscious effort to think positive it is possible to to change the core beliefs. ( I did and it worked ) I built new ones on the old ones but they are still in memory as false and this can be a problem if you look for them. This poking at them is what causes setbacks. So you need to be able to strongly believe they are in the past and not true so you won't poke at them. It isn't hard to do. Just question every thought and change the negative anxious ones to positive. Leave the positive anxious ones alone. An example of a positive anxious thought for me would be traveling down a windy road at speed because I want to. It reinforces the fact that anxiety is not all bad. Notice "want to" in there. It is important to remember that memory can not be erased only not used by making a related positive more important. This is done by coding so you use a different pathway in memory but that is technical and not important to know. Just thinking positive will do it.

Yes I do have a lot of information. All thoroughly checked out and tested. Feel free to ask anything.

With anxiety a person might feel lost, with a disorder a person feels scared. 

Agoraphobia is a fear of being in a situation where you do not have control.  Not of the situation but of your thoughts. If you want to do something you have control, If you have to do something you do not. When you first practice "want to"you will still be anxious but not scared. After a few times the anxiety lessens as you realize you do have control because you are in control of your thoughts. You might not like what you need to do but you are in control of doing it because you want to. "want to" mantras work. They take a little while to get established but they totally get rid of Agoraphobia. A while ago I drove for two and a half hours to get to an airport I haven't been to in thirty years to pick some one up. I was a bit early so had to sit there waiting. The only thought in my head was that this was interesting. Quite a change from how I would have felt five years ago. I probably couldn't have done it then. Almost 60 years of anxiety gone with just a thought. But this is CBT. Changing thought patterns. Wish I'd known years ago. The more you want to do something the less you need to use it. It is conditioning and once established blocks the fear without needing to be used. You will feel normal.
