Fear of not being able to escape?

The fear of not being able to escape is known as claustrophobia. Claustrophobia is a specific phobia, which is an anxiety disorder characterized by an intense and irrational fear of specific objects or situations. People with claustrophobia may experience anxiety or panic attacks when they are in confined or enclosed spaces, such as elevators, tunnels, or small rooms. The fear can be so severe that it may interfere with daily activities, work, and social interactions.
