One of the funniest and most poignant books ever written about a mental illness, Agorafabulous! is a hilarious, raw, and unforgettable account of how a terrified young woman, literally trapped by her own imagination, evolved into a (relatively) high-functioning professional smartass. Down to earth and seriously funny, Benincasa's no-holds-barred revelations offer listeners the politically incorrect hilarity they heartily crave, yet is so often missing from your typical, weepy, and redemptive personal memoir.

I too have suffered from agoraphobia and felt that this book is not exactly relatable. I appreciate the humor behind the story although she hardly gets into the debilitating power agoraphobia and panic attacks had on her life, though to her credit she does mention a few (urine in bowls and not eating.) This book is essentially a timeline of her sex and work life throughout her 20’s when I expected more detail of how she overcame the fears and anxiety of agoraphobia. I expected more of the psychological aspect to it. Dealing with agoraphobia isn’t as simple as taking a pill and a new job. Someone reading this book would definitely not walk away with a clearer insight on the nuances behind Agoraphobia and how to manage/ overcome it. No hate, just trouble understanding the intention behind this book. Power to the author in her courageous journey.
