Overview

• The Bergen 4-Day Treatment (B4DT), initially developed for OCD and adapted for panic disorder, delivers intensive therapy over four consecutive days.
• Nearly 90% of patients report significant improvement within one week of completing the treatment, according to earlier studies.
• Recent long-term research published in May 2025 shows that many patients experience even greater symptom reduction months and years after therapy.
• The treatment effectively reduces panic disorder symptoms and extends benefits to general anxiety and depressive symptoms, making it a comprehensive mental health intervention.
• Researchers emphasize the need for larger, more diverse patient trials to confirm the promising results and ensure broader applicability.
