Panic Disorders
(PS008)
Introduction
A panic attack is a discrete
period of intense fear of discomfort accompanied by a number of defined
symptoms (see below). Some persons experience only one attack in their
lives and never experience another. However, persons who have recurrent
attacks are said to have panic disorder (PD) and can experience significan't
disability if untreated.
PD is defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual 4th edition (DSM-IV)
as recurrent panic attacks presenting in conjunction with persistent concern
over additional episodes, worry over the significance or consequences of
the attacks, and/or a notable change in related behavior experienced for
one month (or longer) following at least one of the attacks.
PD affects between 3 and 6 million Americans. It affects women twice as
commonly as men, and can occur at any age but most often begins in young
adults.
During the past 2 decades, there have been significan't advances in the
treatment of PD, and a range of therapeutic choices is now available. Anxiety
disorders are generally treated by a combination approach utilizing both
medication and behavioral therapy.
