Do I Have A Phobia If I Am Nervous When A Doorway, Aisle Or Hallway Is Blocked?

I get extremely nervous when a doorway, aisle, or hallway is blocked. This happens especially in public places lile restaurants or stores. Basically anytime I feel like I would not be able to get out easily if I needed to. Do i have a phobia, and if so, what is it called?

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Agoraphobia is the phobia that you are having. More specifically it is clustrophobia. This needs treatment with paroxetine and benzodiazepines.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
