CBSN
Cecil Jackson, who has agoraphobia, says his life has completely changed after undergoing therapy and speaking about his struggles publicly with CBS News. But although he and his family celebrate his progress, Jackson says his experience with agoraphobia is "still a process."
"My life has not been the same," Jackson told "CBS Mornings" lead national correspondent David Begnaud. "It will never be the same and I'm excited."
Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder that causes someone to avoid situations that could cause them to panic or feel trapped, like being in enclosed spaces or traveling too far from home, according to the Mayo Clinic.
