Doubtful. I've had one period of time where I struggled to leave the house, and looking back on it there was nothing Logical about it. It was strictly an emotional response to... something. And I grew up in Wyoming hiking and hunting, have been shot at and returned fire, am an avid motorcyclist, have had a multitude of bones repaired due to hazardous activities... both before and since that 7 month stretch. Not like I've never been exposed to life-ending risk.
No clue what changed either, I just got over whatever it was... wife never knew a difference, never asked the kids. Life didn't change either to Cause the incident (meaning I kept working out, kept working, kept doing everything that I'd been doing), it was just a fuckton Harder to motivate to get out of the house when I didn't have something that demanded it of me. And then it just... stopped.
But fuck that fast food shit. Haven't consumed any McDonalds food since sometime in the 1980s, and I won't ever again.
I don't enjoy leaving my property all that much, probably because I'm not much of a people person. Going to the grocery store feels like being at the zoo, but on the wrong side of the enclosure.

Oh good its not just me. The MINUTE I walk into those places I'm dead tired. it sucks the life right out of you.
Makes Christmas shopping hard, I wait until the last minute because retail establishments are completely exhausting.
Let's be honest, if reality was that interesting people would spend their days looking out the window instead of watching tv
Sounds more like depression than anxiety.
