Mayo Clinic describes "agoraphobics" as often feeling "trapped, helpless, or embarrassed". In Ancient Greece, what was an "agora"?

An "agora" in ancient Greece was an open marketplace, or a place where people gathered to exchange goods and ideas. Agoraphobics are often afraid of being in open, public places as they fear something bad will happen to them.
