Conquer Agoraphobia

Agoraphobia is the fear of places where someone cannot get help or might be able to get a panic attack. This article will show you how to conquer it.

Steps

 * 1) Find out why you are agoraphobic.There are many reasons for this ranging from serious things such as child abuse to milder cases like reading topics such as raoul moat and other shooting/killing sprees that have happened within public areas.
 * 2) Go outside alone for a short while (even if its outside your door to have a cigarette it still counts. Although the longer distance it is the better and quicker your agoraphobia will go away.)
 * 3) Keep on doing it even if you feel uncomfortable. It will be a lot better later on and you will see why.
 * 4) Hang out with friends whenever you can, as you can go with them to do many things and it will help you slightly.

Avoid any of the following:

 * Depressing content (stuff like romance films with sad endings like romeo and juliet, or most of the green day songs are perfect examples of depressing content) as this will make you depressed which makes agoraphobia a whole lot worse.
 * Caffeine
 * Booze or alcoholic drinks.

Warnings

 * Having agoraphobia for more than 3 years lowers your self esteem, and having it for 5+ years can make you want to do suicide. If you feel you have low self esteem or like killing yourself, get help as soon as possible from a suicide hotline or from family or friends.
 * Phobias are not like fears because fears can be conquered, but phobias are a real medical condition and are much harder to conquer.
