Torrent description

DVD: 48 minutes

In this new video two people talk of their experiences with panic disorder and agoraphobia and the effect that it has had on their lives. They describe how their symptoms were initially attributed to physical causes and their eventual diagnosis with panic disorder, and they teach in plain language the techniques that they then used to successfully overcome it. Further insight is given by Professor Ron Rapee, Professor of Psychology, Macquarie University, and Dr Lisa Lampe, a consultant psychiatrist specialising in the treatment of social phobia. The techniques are largely based on cognitive behavioural therapy, which has proven to be a very successful treatment for panic disorder and for agoraphobia.

Of particular interest is the section on internal exposure. This is a relatively recent and very successful technique in the treatment of panic disorder.

Cognitive behaviour therapy has proven to be the most successful treatment for panic disorder and agoraphobia yet developed. It involves common sense and practical notions of how to recover, yet it is based on years of psychological research. This video teaches these techniques that have worked so well for other people, and that have been proven to be effective.
