Abstract

The author reviews selected data from the Epidemiologic Catchment Area study of a probability sample of over 18,000 adults living in five U.S. communities. The data indicate that panic disorder, like major depression, is associated with impairments in quality of life. These impairments need to be considered in planning treatment and evaluating the efficacy of its outcome.
