Is it normal to be afraid of openness?

Ok so basically im scared of being in the open. I always like it when im in the shadows, nobodys looking at me, and i can see everywhere. I always feel as though someones watching me from behind. For instance, water. When im in deep water i think of how open it is below me and freak out. When im standing on a high cliff i fell as though im falling. Whats going on? Is this normal?

    Yeah, as the first guy said, it's called Agoraphobia.

    I get twitchy whenever I go over a suspension bridge, but that may just be the height.

    I only get that way when I'm in deep water like the ocean. I went snorkeling once off of a cruise liner and freaked. The waves were to strong for me. I swam as hard as I could to get back to the shuttle boat.
