Can a person who stays only at home become crazy?

If someone can't go out and spends time only at home, he or she can become crazy? There are agoraphobic people who can't go in public spaces. And they spend all their time at home.

As long as you are active at least in some way to the outside world even just online can help keep a person from going nuts, but it is better at least to step out the door once in a day. Sometimes it is difficult and becomes a fear as you say. That is not good to never go outside.

It will make us depressed, I think. I stay at home and work online for many years already and I become depressed lately.

It's true. Staying at home leads to depression.

AS long as you are active online and in your private life it would not matter if you stay home all the time.

I spend the majority of my time at home. Yes, I go out, but I'm also busy on the computer. I connect with the world that way. A person doesn't need to go crazy if they spend all their time at home if they know how to connect with the world.

I spend most of my time at home and I am usually alone here. It can really get to you, even with Internet, TV, and books to keep me busy. I don't think I've become crazy yet.

I think it's difficult to be alone.

LOL! i like the title for this discussion... i really laughed. anyway i think it depends on that person on how he/she will maximize that day on just being at home, like me i can stay at home being alone. i'm a home buddy, i'd rather stay at home and work or doing online works or even household chores than going out. but i still goes out but it depends on where to go and whom to be with...

That's possible I guess. Depends on what's going on in the person's mind. I tried staying at home and not going out for 2 years. My work was online then and my way of entertaining myself was mylot and chatting and a chat room where I was a moderator. But then I got to the point where I realised I wasn't growing as a person. I wasn't exposed to what's going on in my town. So I decided to be free and started going out again. From then on, I can't imagine not going out of the house anymore.

They can't go crazy but they will be social misfits.

A person need not go to a crowd. He or she needs to meet just two or three persons.

As long as I am busy working inside a home, it does not me crazy. I do go out to shop from time to time after I get paid for doing surveys and blogs via Pay pal.

Many people stay home and have no problem. I feel awful for people stuck in hospitals and nursing homes who are usually not "allowed" outside. What does it take for a worker to take the patient outside for some good vitamin D and fresh air? Really upsets me.

Possible because not doing much activity in a day. A person can go insane.

Lack of activity leads to this?

@dya80dya yes. because most of the time you just lay in bed or sit and stare on the wall.

I think so. I know there are some people that suffer from the fact that they cannot go outside. They freak out. But if a normal person stays home all the time, we can surly go nuts. That's what I think anyway.

I think, people choose to stay at home because they have seen too much of the world. If a person who stays at home engages in bad thinking habits, he/she will probably go insane; on th other hand, staying at home is a blessing, one does not have to deal with everyday out of home situations

no, i don't think so. even though i believe in the saying that "an empty mind is the devil's workshop", i still believe that we can be productive even if we are home.
