Agoraphobia and panic attacks: What really helps

While agoraphobia without panic attacks is often still treated without the use of psychotropic drugs, antidepressants and/or strong tranquilizers are often used for agoraphobia with panic attacks. However, drug treatment of anxiety disorders is not without risks. Because such pharmacotherapy can be both addictive and lead to severe side effects. Fortunately, a new form of therapy has been available for a few years now that does not require any psychotropic drugs at all and yet usually leads to a significant reduction in the feeling of anxiety.
