fear of crowds is called

Maybe the real question is....what symptoms does one exhibit if diagnosed with agoraphobia? As DJ as said the term is from the Greek, I believe, meaning 'fear of the marketplace'. I am diagnosed with it....and that is one aspect of disorder. Took time for me to get comfortable shopping for groceries. Generally other words are used these days by psychiatrists....but severe untreated agoraphobia has the power to keep one imprisoned in his/her home. The onset can be gradual..

i can so relate with you to i fear always of death but i fear that my heart is goin to fail and i dont know why this is if i get a pain somewhere im scared im goin to fall down and die,i know i mightened but its all in my head!

Deep breathing excersises work really well for me. I have agoraphobia (fear of crowds, open places, fear of people- totaly not fun!) So staying calm is number 1 on my things to do every day. Also take time for yourself, have a warm bath, read a favorite book, tell yourself it is okay to put your feet up from time to time.

Just curious isn't " The cause for DD is usually due to the chamber walls are rigid and does not relax ienough to fill adequately and/or the walls and/or septum (wall dividing the heart chambers) are thickened to the degree it crowds out filling capacity" as stated in prior post be defining LVH?

Hello there, I need to know what this is called, a name?; I'm fairly sure this goes under anxiety but is there anything more specific to this particular circumstance/situation??. First of all I'm a 20 year old male, And throughout the beginning of my life things didn't go all that well for me in school,home and whatnot, and it continued to my early teens.

Hello, I do suffer with ocd. One of my fears is pregnancy. Although I'm not having sex, I still fear I can get pregnant :( it's a pain. So I went to a house party and I had to pee real bad, using other people's restrooms is a no no for me. But I was kinda tipsy and I had to go. As I was squating I slipped and fell on the floor on something wet. Idk if it was girl or guy pee. Now I'm freaking out with pregnancy thoughts like what if.

The people burning the cars were a separate group within the the passive protesters.They were dressed in ninja style and are called the BLACK BOC.They are known to "crash' protests all over the world,they are carry the black clothes in a back pack ans change up and dis appear in the crowds after they destroy and they are never caught...

I am 25 years old. I've lived with my grandparents for the past 10 years. I moved in with them due to issues with my mother being an alcoholic and things generally being unstable in that environment. My grandma has always been controlling. I hated jobs I've had but stayed there for fear of her being mad at me for quitting. Any time I didn't show up at work or school, she would be highly upset with me; often ignoring me for days and threatening to kick me out of the house.

A person with social anxiety disorder is afraid that he or she will make mistakes and be embarrassed or humiliated in front of others. The fear may be made worse by a lack of social skills or experience in social situations. The anxiety can build into a panic attack. As a result of the fear, the person endures certain social situations in extreme distress or may avoid them altogether.

Hi there. Social anxiety is pretty common. And it can vary in intensity from person to person. As I've gotten older, I've found that I can make decisions that work best for me. If I don't love crowds, I limit having to be in them. That's the great thing about being an adult. However, it is best to work on the core issue so that you can handle it when crowds and social situations are unavoidable. A therapist can do great work.

Since it happens only in crowded places, you probably have fear of crowds. Try deep breathing in a crowded place. Hum a tune or do mathematical tables in your mind to keep your mind engaged elsewhere so that the subconscious fear does not overtake you. Try and see if this helps. Take care!

Are any if you ladies reaching the end of your pregnancy and going to see fireworks? I'm 9 months pregnant due the 24th and I really want to see fireworks but I jut feel sooo pregnant and huge crowds and drunk people just do not sound like a good time to me! But I really want to see fireworks... Idk what to do! What are you ladies doing for the fourth??

I have read about runners dying while exercising, BUT for every story like that there are literally millions of others that it is improving there heart health on a daily basis. We tend to focus on that one negative story when we are worried about something in particular. So, I decided to confront it and it has made me a much healthier person for it.

I am scared my sexual desire is leaving me which I don't know if it is stress related or what. My last period was last month and very light and this month I have not received one. Other fear is my husband which is younger then me has diabetes and thinks I don't lust after him anymore. What is going to happen to my sexual desires??

ERP therapy is what it is called and it is the gold standard. Medication helps too. Are there other things you have irrational fear about?

When I was at the carnival this week and it was crowded with so many people where I'd never been around that many people before I think I went catatonic because I went into a stupor and kept zoning out staring at the crowds and such and couldn't focus or anything else. People would talk to me and I couldn't focus on them. I don't do good around large crowds and this was way more than I'd ever been around before.

She tends to fly off the deep end and spends a lot of time yelling to the point of putting my 3 year old into screaming fits and fear! She has thrown things and hit me in front of my 3 year old and when DCF was called, she sugar coated everything and agreed to participate in family therapy.... When they closed their case, she started skipping family therapy! Is it possible my 3 year old's symptoms can be corrected by leaving this house?

t get to see many fireworks, but I did go to a cincy reds baseball game and I noticed that at certain points, when the crowds would yell at the same time my little one would move around.

I know the feeling and as hard as it is its best to try and push that thought out of your mind. Worry isn't good for you or the baby and it's completely out of your control. The most comforting thing my midwife told me was if a miscarriage happens within the first 12 weeks it's usually a sign that the embryo hadn't form correctly and would never had lasted to term. I've got 2 little girls now and having a 3rd.

less blood pumped into circulation can cause ischemia (lack of blood flow) of the heart and the slow progression of less blood puimped may gradually cause further deformity of the heart as the overworked heart is stressed to meet blood/oxygen demand. The thickened septum may cause a narrowing that can block or reduce the blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta - a condition called “outflow tract obstruction.” The ventricles must pump harder to overcome the narrowing or blockage.

What you descrive is a panic attack when you have this intense fear, then you become afraid of the fear and so on until it becomes a vicious circle. You came to the right place! You should browze a lot of these threads as you will quickly see that you are not alone in your fear and anxiety and you will perhaps learn from how others have coped with it.

Remind me again what your treatment regimen consists of? I know a lot of this is new to you, but the good news is, you've reached out pretty quickly, a lot of people wait years, hoping it will just "go away". If that were only true! I've been there, done that. I've had varying degrees of agoraphobia with my panic.

Join the club. I don't like being around large crowds either. I personally don't think there is anything wrong with that. I just avoid them and go about my business.

Agoraphobia is a fear of being in places where help might not be available. It usually involves fear of crowds, bridges, or of being outside alone.

Hi, I'm 35w1d I would like to know if anyone knows why I run out of breath just by walking 5 or 6 steps I don't get up to fast or anything like that.does anyone knows???

Have no idea what Chamilla is. Do you mean chamomile? If so, that's a pretty mild relaxant compared to other herbal preparations. At any rate, to the poster: pick up a book called Natural Highs by Hyla Cass, a psychiatrist at UCLA who uses natural remedies in her practice. It's a complicated way to go, not as simple as taking one herb.

Hi I am new to this. About 2 years ago I was diagnosed with depression/anxiety. I am still on anti-depressants. I have this wierd fear of throwing up. It is to the point, where I don't even want to eat. When someone is around me who is feeling sick I freak out. I hate living like this. I get so stressed out about it. I then get discomfort because I cannot pass a bowel movement because I am so tense and then right away I think that my stomach pain is going to cause me to through up.
