My targets for treatment Imagine into the future and that the symptoms in the cycle have improved and the vicious cycle of panic and anxiety has been reversed. How would your life be different from now? Answer the questions below and think how things would be different for you and what you would be doing that is difficult now:
Where would you be going?
(For example, I would be able to go on holiday. I would be able to socialise outside the home more with friends, I would be able to go to an evening class...).
What would you be doing?
(For example, I would be sleeping better, I would be spending more time with my friends and family instead of worrying, I would be able to travel more, I would be able to apply for the promotion I keep avoiding, I would be sleeping better....)
Who would you be with?
(For example, I would be spending more time with my flat mates or partner, or spending more time with my children at weekends....)
