Do you still have hope that things will change? I've been agoraphobic a little bit longer than you and I still hope that I'll have a normal life with friends and shit. I wish I could accept my situation.

Isn't agoraphobia just the fear of open spaces wotb many people ?
Hope you guys will make it alright

I think it is the fear of getting trapped, which they ironically do to themselves by becoming shut ins

it's the fear of going outside where there are groups of people you don't know

have either of you cucks done therapy for it? was it any help at all?

seems like social anxieties are kind of a catch 22 in terms of seeking treatment, but also that people who do tend to have good results...

Well I mean friends are people you know. And unless you're retarded, you also know that when it comes to that, quality>>>>>quantity
Five friends is already a lot yknow, start with one or two but don't bece emotionally dependant on them.

im scared to get therapy because i heard talking about your anxiety only makes it worse which I believe

hmmm, I've never heard that but I suppose it is possible. I think it would just be embarassing to pay a PHD tell you how you're a fuck up who chooses not to make the small necessary changes required to recover. If it was a roastie I don't think what is left of my dignity could ever recover
