Does anyone else experience this? My panic disorder with agoraphobia used to keep me coddled inside my house and afraid to go anywhere, or at least anywhere without a safety person. Years later my agoraphobia seemed to almostly completely subside, but now I am left with being addicted to my safety people. I can do things on my own, though I have to at least know where someone is and be able to get to them. If I am alone during afternoon rush hour traffic and can only find safetly people on the other side of town (inaccesible b/c of the traffic) I completely melt down. Please help. This is such a nightmare to be in your 30's and feel like you need a babysitter of sorts. I can't seem to let go of this terrible unncessary crutch.
