Not all people who become housebound suffer from agoraphobia. Other emotional illnesses can underlie this behaviour. Early diagnosis is important. Some conditions can be treated by family physicians without special training, and some are appropriately treated only in special settings. This paper describes psychiatric disorders that may present as a "housebound syndrome" and outlines the principles of treatment for each.
并非所有居家不出的人都患有广场恐惧症。其他精神疾病可能是这种行为的潜在原因。早期诊断很重要。一些病症可由未经特殊培训的家庭医生治疗,而有些病症只有在特殊环境中才能得到妥善治疗。本文描述了可能表现为“居家综合征”的精神障碍,并概述了每种障碍的治疗原则。
