Just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. I am a 40 yr old woman living in RI and I have been dealing with panic disorder and agoraphobia since my early teens. I am currently able to get out about around a mile radius of my home. Some days are better than others and some days are very bad. For some reason I get out and about easier during the night or when it is raining. I have been in and out of treatment for many years and I am currently taking Xanax (2.5 mgs day) and Prozac (40 mgs a day). Lately I have been waking up feeling anxious or just an overwhelming sense of doom. I am trying to keep myself positive and I try to get out at least once a day, even if it is only to my yard which is a decent size. I do not want to become housebound again... that was the worst! So here I am looking for some people who can understand me and hopefully help me as well as me help others.
Thanks for taking the time to read this,
S.
