I'm bipolar, and the medication I take prevents manic phases but doesn't even make a dent in my depression. It doesn't help that I'm also severely agoraphobic and have a whopping case of OCD. It's getting increasingly hard to function and deal with life's normal ups and downs, although no one in...

I've been agoraphobic for my entire adult life. Even before I became trapped in my house, I struggled to relate to other people. I've never understood the nuances of human interaction, perhaps I had/have Asperger's I don't know. I've always been MORBIDLY hypersensitive. I was always so fragile...

I've been agoraphobic and suffering from severe OCD for about 17 years now. I lost my entire youth to these illnesses. To top it off I was diagnosed as bipolar about 10 years back. I literally never leave my house except to see my psychiatrist every 8 weeks. I have no friends, NONE. I don't know...

I've been agoraphobic for a number of years. I only leave the house every 8 weeks or so, to see my psychiatrist. If I didn't have to see him (in order for him to keep prescribing my meds-I'm bipolar and have OCD/Anxiety Disorder too) I'd literally NEVER leave the house. Everything about the...

I have suffered from OCD for more than 15 years, since I was 15. Looking back on my childhood I can trace it back even farther. My OCD rules and rituals control not only my life but my mom's as well. I force her to be an enabler. I am also agoraphobic, and part of the reason is that contact with...
