Explanation:

Agoraphobia corresponds to the intense fear of being in unfamiliar surroundings or feeling that one cannot get out, such as crowded environments, public transportation and cinema, for example. Even the thought of being in one of these environments can make the person anxious and have symptoms similar to panic syndrome, such as dizziness, increased heart rate and shortness of breath.

This psychological disorder can be very limiting and have a negative impact on a person's quality of life, as they cannot go elsewhere or relax when in crowded environments, for example, interaction with other people can be impaired, which can lead to to the isolation of the person.
