Answers:
I can share with you the "best way" that I found to make money on the net for me! My answer won't make help you to make money fast or overnight (except one) but what I do to make an extra income might be help you out. I will briefly share on how I make an income from the net. I believe in "every little bit helps!"
(1) Probably the easiest way that I make a little extra income is by doing simple things like surveys, and "reading emails", etc. I only spend about an 1/2 hour a night doing this and I make over $300.00 a month doing this!!
(2) It may take a little time and effort but if correctly done correctly, having your own website / blog can make you money and also be a great form of steady income. That is the best thing about the Internet, it that it is open for business 24/7 and available worldwide and you can make extra money even when you are off the computer. My best month so far was $1738.28 without even touching my website. The main trick is to have regular traffic from search engines queries.
(3)This form of income can make you money within a few days, if you sell the right item on Ebay. I sell items on Ebay and on a local auction site. I started off by selling "odds and ends" that were around the house that I no longer wanted and then buying things from garage sales, flea markets, discount bins at local stores, etc. I sell the larger items locally, less shipping charges etc. and most of my customers will gladly pick up the items. Sometimes I buy items from the local auction site just to sell for more on EBay. Also by going to the Ebay site, you can get the same type of information that some people offer for sale for free! I average about $250.00 per week doing this part time!

The best thing you can do is get some counseling and get into a job position that is at least somewhat public. The more you allow yourself to embrace your agoraphobia, the deeper you will sink into it. I do understand how hard this sounds to you, but I also know that it's the best thing to do. Good luck!

I work with a guy that has that, I work in a call center, they gave him his own table and no one else can sit there, and no one else is around him, all he does is talk people through problems with their dsl connection on the phone.
Maybe you could get a job in a call center and do something like that.
Do you like the outdoors when your not around a crowd? You could try something like a park ranger or become an artist.

I suggest getting SSDI, and getting help from a psychiatrist, they can help you get back on your feet so you can get a job again. I have this also, for me it is because I have panic attacks so I avoid going anywhere. But go to the VA and my psychiatrist has helped me so much. I now go to college, so you can get help. Good luck :-)

Consider a home mail order business. There are many books that cover all aspects of this method of business. E-Bay is one way to sell items. But you could hire a web page designer in order to go on line and sell long distance. You can sell physical goods or your expertise as a consultant.
You can also borrow books about those kind of businesses from library. Or buy one or more that you find are particularly. If your product or service is "high end you can send it out by courier, thus avoiding going out in the heat to post, your mailings too.
Hope that helps.

Try a job that you can do from home. Or maybe even something that is very much for one person who does not need someone to look over them every minute. The site below might be a good place to look for things....

I understand how that is. You might want to consider getting SSI, but first you have to see a psychiatrist and a therapist for a professional evaluation and attempt to see if you can get better. It's difficult to get it right out of the gate and lawyers crawl out of the woodwork and say they want to help you get it, but they only want a huge chunk of the money you'll get.
If you can't work, apply for every social service available, including gov't mental and medical and housing.
It took me 5 years from being on general relief to getting SSI and housing.
Like someone else suggested, you can sell on ebay.
The easiest thing to do is to sell on half.com and on amazon because you list for free.
I live in a huge bldg and I make a little extra money helping people with their computers when they screw up and by giving rides to the markets, so many don't drive.
I have no family and I'm making out ok by myself and I'm really screwed up, sorry to say. If I can make it, so can you.
Most of the work is getting on the phone and making appts and finding someone to take you if you can't go alone.
Good luck, I'm sure you can get it together.

You can do online surveys. Here is the site I use, its legit and free to join, they PAY! You won't get rich, but its extra, easy income a month...
