In response to the article, I wouldn't say the fear of being alone is all that accurate for everyone. I don't have a fear of being alone, in fact I prefer it. I didn't leave my house much unless it was night time. The conditions had to be perfect. Night, not busy, secluded streets...there is even a 24 hour supermarket about a 30 minute walk from my place lol 1:30am grocery shopping.
I have experienced the dissociation, that was very scary. I've been through almost all of those on that list. It's like it's a fear of anxiety attacks themselves.
The problem is I was on wellbutrin and as soon as I came off that, recently, my anxiety and dissociation deminished by a good 80%. I lived in hell for 3 years. If I'd known I just had to come off the drug....
I've done a lot of work on myself to try to overcome this and am getting better. I just wanted to reach out to others who also have been overcoming it and people who are still in it. And of course, others who understand.
