Current Studies

One treatment that is known to typically improve anxiety symptoms is a type of drug called selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs, e.g. citalopram, sertraline). Therefore, the main goal of this study is to understand how this type of treatment changes our mood, as well as general perceptions of our body and the rest of the world. This information will help us understand how the treatment works, and how we can best use it in the future to help people cope with their anxiety.

We are currently recruiting individuals who are in the first seven days of SSRI use.
