Dear John,
The good news is that agoraphobia
and panic disorder are curable, so
do find a good therapist.
The other
good news is that illness dispenses
you from your Mass obligation. Also,
a priest can come to you for Reconciliation
and someone can bring you the Eucharist,
however, you say you find it nearly
impossible, not impossible, to function outside your home so I
am wondering under what circumstances
you are able to function.
You might transfer that set of circumstances
to the Mass attendance situation
and have some success.
Mary Ann
