My self doubt for me seems to be more associated with this disorder. I'm agoraphobic, and even though I feel intelligent, a rational person, try to view things from all sides (exception to those thoughts with panic that linger), if I make an achievement, it is quite often believed by family members that hurdle should be crossed off my list, and should be able to do every single day. So I become more critical of myself, if I fail to be able to make it to the grocery store, with anticipatory anxiety, knowing if I get one mile from home, it will explode to massive panic. No matter how I try to explain that each day is a different day, they don't understand that because you can expand your zone, that all fear is not gone. It is something that needs constant attempts, some successes, some will be failures, but as long as I keep trying.
