What Does Love Have to Do With Agoraphobia?

I just read an interesting few paragraphs in a boook this afternoon that I have to share. I was reading Karen Williams' book entitled "How to Help Your Loved One Recover from Agoraphobia" and I came across a part where she writes about the power of being loved by others and loving yourself when it comes to recovering from agoraphobia.

I thought this was interesting because I attribute a great deal of my recovery from agoraphobia to changing the nature of my close relationships - from relationships based on fear (of disapproval, rejection, etc...) to relationships based on unconditional love.

To read more, go to the Agoraphobia Resource Center website, click on "articles" and look for one called "The Power of Love for Healing Agoraphobia."
