We didn't use it for anything so dramatic (just generalized anxiety) and I haven't used it since, but it is starting to filter into the professional psychiatric field. I think it is one of those things where psych folks know that it can't hurt, and if it helps even a little it is worth it as another tool in the arsenal. Seeing this, I'm likely to go dig out the handout they gave us and give it a more serious try.
