Clueless in Seattle
Member
I've been Googling around the web without success, trying to find the name for the fear of having visitors into my apartment.
I'm in my seventies and in the last decade or so I've become afraid of having anyone visit me in my apartment. I didn't used to feel this way. When I was younger I used to have visitors coming and going all the time and enjoyed it.
I've been diagnosed with Parkinson's and have read that paranoia and anxiety are common symptoms of Parkinson's patients. But is there a name for this particular fear? It's kind of the reverse of agoraphobia. Instead of being afraid of going out, I'm afraid of having people in.
