I'd do anything for help from the Speakmans for my Agoraphobia and fears. I've tried everything to try conquer it.
I had help from them for agoraphobia
There are so many people on TH-cam. DARE is amazing for anxiety and the Linden method
Din't give up! Keep searching for help, you'll get there.
Sorry Dale we do not offer private therapy or home visits which is why we host workshops around the UK, which also is no use to you as you would have to travel. Dale, please be assured that you were not born with any of your issues. Your agoraphobia and fears are your fight or flight response protecting you, just like Nicola's in the video. You have obviously suffered traumas in your life. The way to begin to overcome them is firstly to complete a timeline of your life to identify exactly what they are. You can then get help for the causes and not the symptoms. Please also check out Trauma Research UK as they have many free download resources to help too.
AMAZING!! x
Agoraphobia that started with a fear of fainting. Yep. My exact case.
Anita just like Nicola, you can overcome agoraphobia to. Please also take a look at our other videos on here with tips to help. x
Hello!
My exact case too.
My 13 year old is very much like this . The thought of leaving the house fills her with dread . She wont get into the car . Shes terrified that were going to have an accident. We cant carry on like this . Its hell for her & her parents . She has adhd & very bad anxiety 😕
This is like watching myself
so sorry to hear that Kerry. Please take hope from the fact Nicola completely overcame her agoraphobia, (to the point that she now has horses and is hardly at home) so you can too. The key to doing that is completing a timeline and identifying the causes. Trauma Research UK utilise many of our methods so please take a look at their website. x
Amazing. I've been feeling scared of going out ( even though I do ) becos of Covid, knife crimes etc ( especially at night ) and this video was a great help in seeing how our minds make us prisoners.. thank you so much
This is so beautiful , made me cry . What a wonderful purpose you both have in this world the speakmans❤x
Ahh thank you so much that is lovely of you to say xx
This video gave me hope and I cried watching it ❤️. I can relate as I’ve been unable to leave my home for over 3 years now, since the pandemic and my beloved Gran passed away in 2020 from dementia. I have ptsd and contamination ocd and think my fear is of catching covid. Anytime I attempt to go outside I get very severe panic attacks to the point where I am unable to move and am somehow frozen with fear. I cannot be near anyone except my parents because I get the same panic reaction even if I see someone at a distance, I’m 30 and rely on my parents for everything. I have to speak to my friends over the phone or video call because I can’t see them in person. The loneliness is hard and I feel it’s something many people don’t understand. I’ve tried medication and cbt, self help books etc but still I’m stuck and can’t get past this fear of covid and people. I feel I’m just existing and not living and I blame myself for it. I hope one day that I can somehow change like the wonderfully brave lady in this video. I think the work you do is incredible and I want to thank you Nik and Eva for sharing this video, giving us hope and making this world a better place xx ❤️😊🙏🦋.
i have suffered with anxiety and agoraphobia for most of my life im now 62, ive struggled, fought, and failed, mised out on so much. no one has been able to help me.
This made me cry! I have had a similar issue, so it's very close to my heart.❤
I am so sorry for those going through this. Although I didn’t have agoraphobia, I had some bad anxiety for years. I read a book called DARE by Barry McDonough and it helped me immensely. There is an app and I think he just started a podcast. Please check them out and good luck to you all!
Thank you Speakmans. Much love from Barcelona, Spain. Sara
You guys are so comforting!!! X
Aww well done nicola . All the best 👍 👌 😍 🥰
God bless you❤️ I have emothophobia and I watched your video and it helped me a lot, I'm not quite there still, it is hard but I'm trying really hard and I'm trying to listen to you❤️
All of you suffering with this, chances are you will never meet the Speakmans, so find a therapist near you who will come to your home. Don't give up! 💐
Absolutely, no one should ever give up, there is always hope. If you look at the website hubofhope.co.uk and input your postcode you can find therapists near to you.
The problem is,and you can see it already in her son, that the kids will need help too in the fufure. They see their mother living in fear. It is damaging. They will likely try to do anything to 'save' her or will suffer from fear in the future. I know because my mother raised me in extreme fear and has got agoraphobia which I suffer from now too. It is sad that we learn all those fear-based responses from our parents.
Thankfully we helped this lady on the same day we visited her and she overcame her agoraphobia. She retrieved her freedom there and then, and lives life with happiness and freedom. Both this lady and her daughter went on to have horses and stables. This was approximately 12 years ago that we helped her. We maintain contact and all are doing fabulously well.
So sorry to hear of your situation, and yes without treatment you are absolutely right that this can and often will impact the children.
Wish I could do this documentary I’m 26 and don’t leave the house. Nothing has worked no amount of money I’ve spent to get better. I need you guys or I’m going to be like this forever
Interesting video
17:51 Amazing! All she needed was eating. That's the cause, the root of her agorafobia.
She explains she felt "daft' knowing that it took 4 years of her life for no reason.
18:52 At the same day "There's nothing wrong with her."
19:06 "Our job is to help her realise how ridiculous it is and how something so small has been allowed to turn a world upside down."
21:37 eight hours of talking..
She's free again.
She was healed in 8 hours.
Ok.
Remember eating before any activity.
Agoraphobia.
