my belief is that the neural component isn't addressed enough (even though Matt mentioned it). as someone who suffers from both panic and mood disorders, I know stress hormones are constantly being released, I know my hippocampal volume has decreased as a result of that (as shown on an MRI), and I know that directly affects how I relate emotionally. so all the therapy in the world can't change what has already occurred physically-but it can reduce the future release of stress hormones and prevent further damage. it also can help me accept what has already occurred- which is done (as Tabitha wrote) through 'west coast eclectic' (I really like that by the way). thanks for this thread- I'm really enjoying it- judy
