GABA
regulates brain activity
is turned down by BENZOs

Night terrors vs. nocturnal panic
night terrors, you are not fully awake
PSYCHOLOGICAL treatments for panic disorder
CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy)
exposure
exposure
Iatrogenic
illness caused by treatment
Fastest acting drug/most widely prescribed/short half life in body
XANAX
percentage of elderly in nursing homes on antipsychotics
25%
habituation
decreased response to a stimulus due to repeated or long exposure (60-80% effective)
Illardi rule of anxiety
non-traumatic exposure makes it better, avoidance makes it worse
Depersonalization or dissociation
traumatic things seem less real, like a dream
Agoraphobia
"fear of the market"
complication of panic disorder
panic+agoraphobia is harder to treat
GRADED EXPOSURE HEIRARCHY
complication of panic disorder
panic+agoraphobia is harder to treat
GRADED EXPOSURE HEIRARCHY
Specific Phobia
(snakes, spiders, planes, peaches)
marked and persistent
cued by presence or anticipation of object
exposure consistently produces anxiety
person's fear is excessive
feared situation is avoided
causes impairment in function

causes of SPECIFIC PHOBIA
BIOLOGICAL : evolutionary preparedness (hardwired fears)
PSYCHODYNAMIC: phobic object is symbol of inner conflict
BEHAVIORAL: classical conditioning
COGNITIVE: observational learning

Treatments for specific phobias
exposure 90% cure rate
no drug treatments can come close
d-cycloserine: promotes formation of new memories, faster therapy

d-cycloserine
helps with the formation of new memories
used to speed up therapy in specific phobias
ANTIBIOTIC THAT TREATS TB

phobias run in families T or F?
true
Vasonvagal
vagal nerve conveys parasympathetic arousal(shutting down alarm response)
drop in blood pressure/pass out
drop in blood pressure/pass out
extroverts vs. introverts
extroverts have low oxytocin (more friendships/less intimate)
introverts have more intimate relationships with fewer people
introverts have more intimate relationships with fewer people
Two subtypes of SOCIAL PHOBIA
generalized (social anxiety disorder) MOST DIFFICULT TO TREAT
Performance-linked (public speaking, sports etc) more rare
Performance-linked (public speaking, sports etc) more rare
performance linked social phobia
treat like any other phobia, with graded exposure or use BETA BLOCKER to block adrenaline receptors
Yerkes-Dodson chart
with medium anxiety, high performance...otherwise poor performance
(upside down u)

Generalized social phobia treatments
1. cognitive-behavior therapy: 50-60% response
SSRI- 40-55%
Nardil and Ensem (MAO inhibitor) 60-80% response (risk of hypertensive crisis w/ aged foods) ANTI AGING
SSRI- 40-55%

MAO
enzyme that breaks down neurotransmitors like seratonin
higher levels of seratonin and dopamine activities
higher levels of seratonin and dopamine activities
generalized anxiety disoreders GAD
diagnosis criteria: high anxiety+excessive for >6 mos.
restlessness, fatigue, insomnia, irritability, muscle tension, concentration difficulties
90% of GAD patients have another Axis 1 diagnosis
