I don't know what happened, but I think over the past couple of years I've managed to develop a pretty bad fear of a lot of things that don't make sense. I used to go on long walks around my neighborhood, but now I don't do it any more just out of fear of all of the cars going by and making eye contact with people there. I can't handle movie theaters any more because I just feel trapped. I can't do anything unless I have the implicit promise that I can leave or stop any time I want. It's evolved to the point that I'm horrified of getting a regular 9-5 job even though I've worked harder, longer hours before.

If it's not agoraphobia, any idea what could be up with me or what I should do? I know to just stop being a bitch, but I just can't get over this weird sudden mental hurdle and I don't know how or when or where I even got it.
