I suffer from agoraphobia, I/'/m afraid of open spaces.
I never leave my house, I don/'/t go to other places.
When I try to go out, I feel faint and it gets hard to breathe.
I have to go back in my house immediately, I can/'/t leave.
I haven/'/t left my house in over twenty years.
When I think about what I/'/ve missed, It drives me to tears.
My sister told me to get some help and she decided to insist.
Now at 4 P.M. on every Friday, I get a visit from my therapist.
Sadly, many other people know how I feel.
This is no laughing matter, it/'/s a terrible ordeal.
I hope that my therapist can help me and I/'/ll be able to go outdoors pretty soon.
If that does happen, I/'/ll be so happy and thankful, I will be over the moon.

I can’t imagine what it’s like to have such a fear. I deal with social anxiety to a certain degree and even that I find to be inhibitory to my potential to enjoy life to the max. I hope you touch someone with your poem and help push people in a positive direction,
