I just typed a really long description of my situation but it somehow got lost. Haven't left my house since I was hospitalized in December. Have suffered from depression, anxiety, panic and alcoholism for many years (all at various times in my life).
I did have a really good period in my life in my early 30s when I was sober, met my husband, got married, had kids. Then it all came back worse than ever after we started moving every few years for my husband's job. Just seemed to get worse each time, and after over a year in Georgia, I just fell apart.
Would really like to talk to some other people online about their agoraphobia and how they manage - or don't.
