UK - Agrophobia - Agoraphobia is an intense fear of being in public
places where you feel escape might be difficult. So you tend to avoid
public places, and may not even venture out from home. It can greatly
affect your life. Treatment can work well in many cases. Treatment
options include cognitive behavioural therapy and medication, usually
with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant.
