Struggling with Agoraphobia and Depression

I wasn’t always like this. I’ve had depression forever, but agoraphobia is just in the last couple of years. I think the pandemic just gave me a reason to shut my door. I can go to the convenience store next door if I have to. Beyond that, I can do it, but I spend the entire time away from my apartment trying to get back. I don’t know. I don’t really have a question. I’m just new here and wanted to say something.

You're not alone! I spent years on the verge of agoraphobia and when the pandemic happened, it was born and became full-blown. I hate it. I used to want to be anywhere BUT sitting at home and I miss that.
