A stepped approach is usually recommended for treating agoraphobia and any underlying panic disorder.
Learning more about agoraphobia and its association with panic disorder and panic attacks may help you control your symptoms better.
For example, there are techniques you can use during a panic attack to bring your emotions under control.
Having more confidence in controlling your emotions may make you more confident coping with previously uncomfortable situations and environments.
If your symptoms do not respond to self-help techniques and lifestyle changes, your GP may suggest trying a talking therapy.
If you prefer, you can refer yourself directly for talking therapies, such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), without seeing your GP.
