The way that I got over agoraphobia was to force myself to do a little at a time until I got used to it. It might have taken 2 months to go 2 blocks alone, but I had to force myself. Start with just stepping out the door. Do it throughout the day. Then go a little further. A little at a time until you're practically bored with it, then go a little further. One day, hopefully, you will regain your confidence. In the meantime, I would take some precautions for the embarrassment of peeing in public, like wear incontinence pants, just in case, or a Poise pad. It would be 1 less thing to worry about. This is a slow and scary syndrome to recover from, but it will happen.
thank you for your comment i will try what u said about baby steps but i am so freaked out by the words baby step but i have to atleast try for everyones sake around meand mine as for the adult diapers and pads i just cant do it i have tried and cant even leave my bathroom with them on for fear that someone will notice i am wearing them i know they wont and i might sound crazy but i cant get over the fact that they will notice.... if u can think of anything else or know of any kind of treatment i can go through that will also help please let me know i am all ears god bless you!!!
The best advice I can give you is to find a therapist right away who will come to your house. Keep looking until you find one, and don't give up. I've had a therapist come to my house, so I know they exsist.
I think you're also suffering from OCD, so try to find a therapist who does cognitive behavioral therapy. Those babysteps will pay off, I promise.
And don't forget how strong you are. You have to be strong to go through all you've been through and still want to fight this thing.
I wish you the best.
