Agoraphobia is the fear of places and/or situations that may make you feel trapped, anxious, helpless, and embarrassed. On this episode, I dive into Agoraphobia and what it is like to experience this type of anxiety disorder. There are ways to overcome Agoraphobia such as: systematic desensitization and rhythmic breathing patterns and I go over them in detail on this podcast episode. People who suffer from Agoraphobia tend to avoid the places that cause them panic, thus growing that very fear bigger and bigger until they are unable to leave their house. It is crucial to not run away from an environment when panic begins to strike because you are then telling your nervous system that this place, and similar places like it, are deadly and should be avoided.
