Agoraphobia

Derived from the Greek words Agora, meaning market and Phobia meaning fear. Agoraphobia is the fear of having a panic attack in a situation that would be hard, or embarassing to escape from. Usually accompanied and caused by GAD and/or Panic Disorder. Though cases without such have been documented, it's rarely reported due to less reason to seek medical treatment.

I never knew your mother had Agoraphobia, that explains why I've never seen her around.
