Work during the past decade has suggested an association between panic disorder and suicide (i.e., suicidal ideation and suicide attempts) that cannot simply be accounted for by co-occurring depression symptoms. To clarify the linkage between panic disorder and suicide, the association between panic-specific clinical and cognitive variables and suicide indicators were evaluated in patients with panic disorder (N=146). Analyses predicting the presence of suicidal ideation (positive, negative) after covarying the effects of a current mood disorder diagnosis and depression symptoms indicated a number of significant predictors including: (1) overall anxiety symptoms; (2) level of anticipatory anxiety; (3) avoidance of bodily sensations; (4) attentional vigilance toward bodily perturbations; and (5) phrenophobia (i.e., fear of cognitive incapacitation). Anxiety-specific variables did not account for unique variance in predicting prior history of suicide attempts.
