I think this story is the first time I’ve ever written about my agoraphobia but I can’t remember and it’s like “oh- right I have that 😬”

me: i should go walk around my neighborhood for a bit, get off the computer, get some exercise, catch some pokemon

the weather: *starts pouring down rain before i can get out the door*

me: oh thank god

My main anxiety is centered around me going someplace and someone embarrassing me. Like if im looking for a specific item in a store and dont see it i dont want to ask about it in fear that they dont stock it at all and think im stupid for even asking. Or if i have to go to a meeting and dont see anyone else there ill be terrified of going in fear that it was cancelled and i look silly. To sum it up, I'm scared of people's reactions more than anything else. Is this a sort of anxiety?

Yeah anon,

Actually there is something called agoraphobia that is fear of places or situations that may cause feelings of hopelessness or embarrassment. Look in our helpful resources and online for more info and how to cope.

Relapse is my biggest fear

Really want to go for a walk, but the outside world terrifies me.
