I struggled with Agoraphobia about nine years ago - it was very difficult for me to leave the house, and also to be on the road. My mother got me the Anxiety and Phobia Workbook and it did, indeed, help me. There are relaxation exercises (mental and physical), and ways of working through your worries, learning how to talk yourself down. I still have some anxiety issues (mostly not about the agoraphobia anymore) but I am much more functional because of this book. It's not an overnight cure, but what is? :P Give it a try?
