Quote From: skeeterThe situations you mentioned are the same ones that are very frightening for me. Sitting in the back seat of a car is the worst or even in the front when I am not the driver. I don't go on rides at amusement parks because I don't want to stand in line. Thank you so much for responding to my message. It is nice to know I am not alone. I have told no one, not even my husband. I guess I am too embarrassed and I, like you, don't know where this fear came from. I have not told my doctor, either. I guess you could say that I have suffered in silence!
Don't be ashamed. There are millions of people like us. I wish you well and pray that you will seek the guidance to help you get better and in control again. My husband was a little weirded out about my phobia but now he realizes that it's real and it's just the way I am. He's my backbone as you can say to helping me keep it together but I know I can't always depend on him. I've learned to take control and deal with it the best way I can. Best wishes to you. If possible seek help as soon as you can, I can imagine the way you are. Don't suffer alone it's not worth it, there is help out there. And don't think it's silly because I felt the same way too. I know I'm not alone in this situation there are many people out there who have the same thing as us. You know praying helps me out alot.
God Bless!
