Hi,
Simular to Agoraphobia. But no panicking, passing out or anything like that involved. Just a pure dislike of the outdoors and perfers to stay indoors most of the time.
To be specific. In this generation, it would be a person who just sits his/her butt down in front of the computer.
All social activities is done through computer, talking/chatting, playing, learning, etc.
This person is very talkactive over the internet. But in real life, lacks interest in almost everything thrown at him/her.
Whenever someone calls him/her out, he/she would just make up some lame excuse not to go out.
Shopping is done like once or twice a month. Everything is stacked to last a month or so. Because this person just hates going out.
What are these people called?

You cannot just describe someone like that and
then point to a particular disease. Human beings
are so complex it takes a trained professional many
hours to diagnose a particular problem.
However your description might be close to that of
a Personality Disorder, most likely one of
the type 3's (Avoidant Personality Disorder)
although the absence of obvious panic would not rule
out General Anxiety Disorder or some sort of
compulsive or schizoid manifestation.
Does the person take drugs? -

To BJ_M: What is OTPW? I could not find the acronym on Google.
To Capmaster: Introverts sounds close. But not direct at computers.
To Offline: No drugs.
To those who answered, "Yoda": Yoda does NOT use computers! So the Force was not with your answer. -

Cap was kidding. It is called humor.
To my knowledge, offline does not do drugs.
Yoda313 does use computers.

I guess you can call me an introvert--because I hardly go out and I dont do very well around people socially. I am always indoors though I dont spend time on the PC all day though, that gets boring after awhile and I dont chat that much either, in fact rarely. On weekends I susally stay home and never leave the house, unless I have to go to the store or something or work, but other than that im at home.
VTMI have the staff of power, now it's up to me to use it to its full potential to command my life and be successful. -
