Responsa A nswers to Pertinent Q uestions: Agoraphobia Q: I have been suffering from agoraphobia for the past number of years. Does Kabbalah offer any advice which can help me to overcome this condition? A: T he study of Torah, especially Chassidut, brings peace and serenity to the soul. Listening to authentic Chassidic melodies is a particularly effective way to soothe anxiety. J ust like Nachshon at the parting of the Red Sea, you have to take the plunge, and trust in G-d that He will be there for you. Commit yourself to take a short walk outside, and stick to your decision no matter what. All the while, talk to G-d. Tell him that you are putting yourself in His loving hands, and that you trust Him to do with you whatever is best. Each day, venture a bit farther from your home, until you feel comfortable going long distances. G-d loves you, and He is with you everywhere that you go, whether in your home or very far away. Trust Him.

Mac users: please note that our site is optimized for the Safari browser Stress and anxiety Help for agoraphobia Originally Published: April 13, 2001 Dear Alice, I have suffered from agoraphobia since the age of thirteen. I am now twenty. I have tried hypnotherapy counseling and psychologists and herbal tablets, but nothing seems to help me. Please, can you help a young, outgoing twenty-year-old who wants to start living! Dear Reader, Agoraphobia is a panic disorder, characterized by intense anxiety about being in places that would be difficult to escape, or where it might be embarrassing to experience symptoms of panic. For example, many people with agoraphobia fear leaving their homes alone, being in a crowd or standing in a line, being on a bridge, or traveling in various vehicles. Sometimes agoraphobia is experienced as a distinct condition, where one fears fainting, being trapped, having diarrhea in a public place, or otherwise feeling helpless and not receiving assistance. More commonly, agoraphobia occurs in people who also experience panic attacks. Panic attacks are intense feelings of fear and often doom, which usually build and peak within about ten minutes of onset. Some of the most typical symptoms include: chest pain and/or heart palpitations trembling feeling faint or dizzy shortness of breath or difficulty catching your breath fear of dying loss of control excessive sweating feeling nauseated These attacks can be terrifying and physically overwhelming (people experiencing panic attacks often rush to the emergency room convinced that they are having a heart attack). Sometimes the attacks are prompted by a particular experience, and sometimes they are unprovoked. Once a person has had some panic attacks, they may begin to fear having one in public and thus develop an additional panic reaction to these situations, and therefore, agoraphobia.

Self help...Agoraphobia Welcome to my Page devoted to Agoraphobia! Agoraphobia(ag"o-rah-fo'be-ah) A persistent, abnormal fear of open public places or public situations. My Experience with Agoraphobia Please visit my Ezine "Uniquely Yours, 'Resa Online" @ http://pages.ivillage.com/resa526/resaezine and Vote for this page by clicking on banner below: Symptoms The following is a list of symptoms that a person having a phobic reaction may experience: Tension, nervousness, trembling, nausea, cold or clammy palms, a hot feeling all over the body, profuse sweating, wobbly legs, dry mouth, and shortness of breath. If these symtoms are not relieved, it may lead to a sense of doom, dizziness, visual distortions, faintness, numbness or tingling of hands and feet, and a rapid pulse. At this point, it would be said that the person is having an anxiety or panic attack. The person is not able to think or function. He may even believe that he is having a heart attack. Causes Agoraphobia is caused by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors. A number of experts in the field of anxiety and panic disorders believe that there is a biological cause related to a chemical imbalance in the person's brain or body. Other possible causes include: High-stress lifestyles, childhood trauma, use of stimulants and/or recreational drugs, and some medical conditions such as hype-thyroidism, hypoglycemia, mineral and vitamin deficiencies, allergic reactions and inner ear disturbances.

UK Panic Attacks Information Agoraphobia Support First of all, let's define what Agoraphobia is. Agoraphobia is NOT a seperate condition to other anxiety disorders, it is part of anxiety disorder. Without inappropriate anxiety, Agoraphobia CAN NOT develop. Agoraphobia prevents people from moving around as they wish by presenting that person with high anxiety or panic attacks when attempted. Agoraphobia is a FEATURE or symptom of anxiety disorder. I have been providing Agoraphobia support to my clients for over 7 years now and in not one case have the phobic symptoms not been eradicated as the general level of anxiety has been reduced. Commonly, during Agoraphobia support, the client has become more able to leave home and travel unattended very quickly by addressing the root cause of the disorder. So what is the root cause of the disorder and what support is there for Agoraphobia?

Hajak, P.D. Dr., Consultant Psychiatrist ,L. Adler, Dr., Consultant Psychiatrist, and E. Rüther, Prof. Dr., Göttingen, Germany. Correspondence: PD Dr. B. Bandelow , Dept. of Psychiatry, The University of Göttingen, Germany Abstract Keywords : Panic Disorder; Agoraphobia; Drug treatment, Psychological treatment Introduction Patients with panic disorder with or without agoraphobia (PDA) as defined by DSM-III-R can be effectively treated with psychological and psychopharmacological treatment modalities. For an overview, all 77 PDA studies that could be traced by computer-aided literature search were evaluated (update of study [2]). In Table 1 and Table 2, the results of controlled studies are listed. A summary of these results is presented in Table 3. As placebo treatments are usually highly effective in panic disorder [1], only studies should be taken into account that used a drug placebo, a "psychological placebo" or a "waiting list" condition as a control group. Treatments that have proven effective in such comparisons include: benzodiazepines (e.g. alprazolam [1])

Here's a peek into my world... my desk, the computer I work at... even a pic of myself... ... however, what I really want to show you about my world is what it is like to live with Social Phobia and Agoraphobia (a fear of leaving ones home or safe place).

Living with Agoraphobia About Us Agoraphobia Info Coping Tips Systematic Desensitization ... send this page to a friend ...and other anxiety related challenges Well, now that you've made your way to the Agoraphobia Web Page, I suppose you just might like to know what that funny-sounding name means. There are many technical definitions with all kinds of slants. For practical purposes, I'll just give you a brief definition given to me by a counselor I once worked with. According to her, agoraphobia is an anxiety condition wherein the one challenged with it suffers extreme anxiety, or even terror , when subjected to any situation which is outside of his or her "safety zone." The focus of this site is a practical one, one which explains in everyday terms what it's like to be phobic (shortened word for agoraphobic), written by a person who's been phobic for about 37 years now. To be sure, like most life situations, being phobic has its upsides and its downsides. I hope to give you a smattering of it all, as told by those of us who know the challenge first-hand. Luci, a good friend of mine and sister phobic, will also be contributing her input throughout this site. I hope you find it interesting, as well as informative.
