Notes from Pysch

Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder, often precipitated by the fear of having a panic attack in a setting from which there is no easy means of escape. As a result, sufferers of agoraphobia may avoid public and/or unfamiliar places. In severe cases, the sufferer may become confined to his or her home, experiencing difficulty traveling from this "safe place."

Our Abnormal psychology lecturer then tells us how, for most patients suffering from agoraphobia, they have one person that they can go out with. Only when they're with the one person, they feel safe enough to visit public places. This one person they feel understands them enough, and whom they trust enough. This one person is usually their spouse, or a family member.

All I could think was: THIS IS HOW SWEET LAH.
But then again how sad would it be if this one person leaves them.
And then I thought about how perfect this is for a movie plot haha.

don't you just love psych :D
