Agoraphobics are not control freaks. Basically, they're trying to control these panic feelings that they have which are really, really horrible for them to experience. Unfortunately, the way that they're trying to control it is by staying calm. Ultimately, that doesn't work for them. It keeps them feeling afraid.
