Hi Kat i have social phobia and agoraphobia although i feel i am getting better it is still rather difficult to go out i am able to go to netball one night a week but it is hard i would much rather be in the comfort of my home.I think you just have to make yourself go out start small then once you are comfortable doing that work yourself up to something more challenging thats how my therapist has tought me.I have learnt that the longer you leave it to do the herder it is to start doing again.You can do it Kat.Gabbi.
does anyone struggle with social phobia? i do. my husband always wants to go out but i always make excuses to stay at home. i say i need to do laundry or clean the house,etc. he knows i have trouble going out because the last time we did stupid me had a nervouse breakdown so he knows im just making excuses to stay home. how do you overcome something like this. for me its like for a normal person looks at going to like to a movie as fun but the way i see it its a struggle to go anywhere. i went to universal studio the other day and for my family this was a fun outing but i was just trying not to act like a total freak. imagine someone with agoraphbia at an amusement park with thousands of people around. i kept going to the bathroom just to breakdown in there. i felt like such a freak. does anyone else strugle with agoraphobia? and does anyone have any advice for someone like me?
