Peace
Ann, I have had panic disorder and agoraphobia since I was a child, I just didn't know what it was then. I wish someone had helped me when I was young instead of just telling me not to be scared of everything and to stop crying. I had great parents, they just didn't know what to do. Your son's condition isn't anything you did or didn't do, so let the regrets blow away.
What finally helped me with my conditions (I still have some really bad times) is daily meditation and yoga. I have xanax for the bad anxiety attacks; none of the antidepressants I tried helped at all. For some people they work great.
You could also try nutritional helps, making sure he eats healthy and takes vitamins. Being inside all the time, he is probably low on vitamin D, so I would give him that daily, as deficiencies are related to depression. Some people are helped by 5HTP and DHA.
Daily exercise would be good too, maybe you could tell him you want to go for daily walks for your health and want his company.
