Agoraphobia? Agorofobia is a common misspelling of agoraphobia.
Agoraphobia is a condition characterized by an intense fear and avoidance of places or situations where help might be unavailable in the event that a panic attack occurs. This type of phobia occurs in one out of three people who have panic disorder. Agoraphobia is best treated with cognitive-behavioral therapy, a specific form of short-term psychotherapy.
