I am a 39 year old female undiagnosed. I have an 11 year old who was diagnosed at age 4 . She has never been an obstacle to me only a relatable mess that I could short cut to an acceptable social pretend or not care .I am not sure I'm autistic I've always been antisocial unless chemically induced.The last 3 years I have regressed to something that resembles can't try or won't go on.Leaving my home is the hardest thing I don't do.Ive been choosy about where I go if I go and should I go my whole life but this is a new monster .A week old corpse has more vitamin D than I have maybe .It is very depressing because after 3 years I could understand quality of life and deterioration of personal dignity My mom was suddenly unfunctionally agoraphobic and had fibromyalgiabefore reaching my age.I would like to know if anybody has similar knowledge or experience of this happening to maybe.anyone else.I need to prepare my daughter to actually see a therapist if she can't walk out her door . Don't be rude about my text errors I never text I refuse to send emails but I'm desperate to know will she be ok because she's diagnosed. I can't imagine her reaching out to anyone. Tell somebody that your struggle with leaving the house just became unbearable and you are unfunctionally tired .Did anyone elses mom have fibromyalgia or agoraphobiaia?

  • I used to have agoraphobia and I was afraid of leaving my house for years, and no matter how many times I've been outside, I was still afraid. I was isolating myself because it was very difficult to deal with.

    I don't know if this will help you or not, but try to go on a gluten-free diet for a week and see if you feel any better. I suggest this, because gluten causes some people digestive issues, and also it can negatively impact mental and physical health. There is an old but interesting term called "bread madness" where there is a relationship between gluten and psychosis like scizophrenia. And gluten can also cause physical ailments. People with fibromyalgia had improved symptoms from a gluten-free diet. 

    In my case, after my health got better, I could go outside without feeling afraid anymore. The difference was that before I could tell myself constantly for 3 weeks to go outside, only to be outside for 3 minutes before getting scared and running back inside and having a panic attack. Now I can get ready in like 10 minutes and go outside immediately, and it feels amazing to go outside on the same day, instead of like a month later. 

    I still don't like the sun that much, so I take cod liver oil for vitamin d instead. But if I take a multivitamin I stop taking the cod liver oil because it'll be too many vitamins.
