]]> Agoraphobia is defined as fear of the market place. Actually this nervous illness makes people unable toAlone at Home go anywhere outside the home. It is also said to be a phobia of leaving the home.  It is true some cases of agoraphobia keep patients locked up in their homes, other less severe cases cause them to be afraid to venture out to a select few.
 
 Panic attacks are the nourishment agoraphobia lives on. Without panic, this nervous illness cannot sustain itself. So, it can be said agoraphobia is a symptom of panic attack disorder and panic attack disorder is a symptom of anxiety.  Agoraphobia, panic and anxiety are of course, all closely related.  Given enough time, anxiety causesc panic.  Given more time panic may cause agoraphobia. 
 
It is important to note, “fear of the marketplace” is really panic of the marketplace. The radical decision to stay inside one’s home day in and day out is motivated by the patient’s want to avoid panic attack. 

There is no way to look at a case of agoraphobia without seeing anxiety panic disorder.  Agoraphobia is fed by panic. Without panic attacks, it will starve. Agoraphobia will not be cured when panic disorder is present.

The first panic attack is always a surprise and a mystery. Agoraphobia is born when the sufferer of a panic attack associates its horror with the place where it occurred.

Unfortunately, a sufferer of anxiety is liable to have a panic attack anywhere and so, if the panic attack was anything other than just a rare isolated incident, the patient will have another one in a another place and he will then add this place do those he will no longer visit.

In reality, it is not always places the panic attack sufferer associates with his panic attacks. It sometimes is certain events he will blame the attack on.   It doesn’t really matter if it is events or places he is tying to avoid because the way to avoid either one of these things is to refuse to go out of the home.

The symptoms of panic attack are very harrowing to the person having them. These symptoms are feelings that mock very serious events like heart attacks and strokes. It is only normal to try to stave off such feelings. Certainly, if avoiding places and events would do it, it would seem reasonable to stay away from them!

The bottom line is curing agoraphobia entails the sufferer visiting those places where he suffered panic attacks. The cure to panic attacks entails the sufferer of them actually inviting these attacks to occur without trying to avoid them in any way shape or form. Panic attacks thrive on fear and when we decide we will not fear them, they will cease to exist. Then, with panic no longer present in one’s life, agoraphobia’ demise will shortly thereafter follow.
