I have agoraphobia related anxiety. It causes me a great deal of stress and discomfort when I'm outdoors and away from a "safe" zone like my car or my house. I get panic attacks. You will never see me decide to go for a 30 minute walk outside.

It's such a difficult thing to explain to people that it's not social anxiety that keeps me from going to certain places, it's the fact that I have to physically move away from my comfort zones.

I'm not severely agoraphobic to the point of not leaving my house. I go to work everyday and go to stores and such. But my car is always nearby.
