Agoraphobia

Before reading this short story, I knew only the definition of what Agoraphobia was. Now, after only about 14 pages I have felt the fear and emotions of one who struggles with this fear.

Sara Secora hasn't let us down yet with always making sure we connect with her characters, physically and emotionally. She has a way with making her readers feel the pain, the distress, the hope, and the joy within her writings.

Agoraphobic: Inside Out is a must read for anyone who knows someone with this phobia. Often times mental disorders looked over because it is hard to feel how someone feels inside of their head, rather than physical pain which is much easier to empathize with.

Mental disorders like this, along with anxiety, depression and so on, are getting more and more common. Sara Secora does a great job at shining a light on this specific subject, so that the reader more understands and empathizes with this common and REAL disease.

The only thing I would criticize about is.. I WANT MORE! This story drew me in just as fast er than it took to read it!

Outstanding job, and congrats Sara!

Great Example of Agoraphobia

Agoraphobia: Fear of places and situations that might cause panic, helplessness, or embarrassment. Chronic; can not be cured, but treatment may help.

That's a heck of a mental handicap for someone to live with. As a student of psychology with dreams of being able to help people with issues just like this one, I was quickly drawn to the synopsis of this short story. I've looked into this kind of paranoia and fear-based limitation, and it utterly fascinates me.

As a highly spiritual person, as well as someone who enjoys studying science and the mind, I was curious to see how this author approached the subject. I hadn't expected it to be as spot-on as it was. Not only did she show exactly what it is like inside the mind of someone struggling with this misunderstood issue, she added in the possibility that it is, for the tormented mind, almost a demonic parasite of anxiety. I've studied it with the same theory, and have yet to see many other people explain it in that way. Because of the author's unconventional spin on a relatively unknown issue, I loved it right away.

There is far more depth to the short pages in this short story, and I am positive that I could find something new with each read. Not only does it give a glimpse into a mental issue still lacking proper care or examination, this quick story gives readers a taste of the author's talent.

I would definitely take a few minutes to read this story, whether the topic interests you, or you're curious about this author.
