Starting the Panic Center Program on your own can be
intimidating. Although it is designed to be user friendly often people don’t
know where to start or fear that they will be overwhelmed with information or
homework. If you think that starting the program alone will be too difficult,
why not join a group of others on the journey? Having the company of other
people who are at the same place in the program may help you to feel like you
are not going it alone. So, let’s begin to work our way through the Panic
Centre program together, as a group. Each week we will work on one
session of the program. Members please ask questions, offer advice, and discuss
your thoughts with others working their way through the same session.
Session 1: This session gives us an overview of panic and
cognitive behavior therapy(CBT). In this session you will:
