This is a YouTube interview (Sept 23, 2024) with Dr. Nicole Cain about her upcoming book Panic Proof. Dr. Cain summarizes the book as a three-part guide to healing panic: (1) understanding symptoms and their history (emotional, mental, physical), (2) changing the paradigm by treating symptoms as indicators and presenting the science (including a chapter on the gut–brain axis and psychobiotics), and (3) (not yet described in this chunk). The book launch date is stated as October 8, 2024.

Chapters
Because we're talking about your book, which is launching October 8th this year, 2024. Tell us just maybe a quick overview of, like, what are some of the. Like if we were to look at a chapter summary, what are some of the chapters that people might see in the book? You know, what are the different topics that they could be reading about?
I walk you through the journey of healing panic, and the whole book is broken into three parts. And the first part is trying to understand what are the symptoms and messages from anxiety and panic. And so we look at how panic can show up differently for people. So some people get digestive upset, some people get heart palpitations, some people, they feel numbness and tingling. And so we break down, how did you get here? What happened to you? What didn't happen to you? What's going on in your history? What, how is the anxiety? How are the symptoms showing up both emotionally, mentally, physically? The second part is changing the paradigm, is changing the conversation where we don't look at symptoms as problems to be solved, but rather indicators. And so in this chapter, we dive deep into the science. And so I have a whole chapter on the gut brain access, and I write about psychobiotics. And we even break down how to find a good psychobiotic, because more is not always better.
