Peer Review Edits
Lead Section - works well, I will add some more background

Keep neutral stance - add in some possible downsides to therapy if I can find any to keep neutral stance on topic

Add history between lead section and techniques

Possibly put exposure response prevention under a medical use category

Post-traumatic stress disorder[edit]
In this section, I changed the wording of the second to last sentence to "were said to be greatly diminished" in order to rule out any bias since the quote was labeled as dubious.

Post-traumatic stress disorder[edit]
Virtual reality exposure (VRE) therapy is a modern but effective treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This method was tested on several active duty Army soldiers, using an immersive computer simulation of military settings over six sessions. Self-reported PTSD symptoms of these soldiers were said to be greatly diminished following the treatment.[dubious – discuss] Exposure therapy has shown promise in the treatment of co-morbid PTSD and substance abuse.

Generalized anxiety disorder[edit]
There is empirical evidence that exposure therapy can be an effective treatment for people with generalized anxiety disorder, citing specifically in vivo exposure therapy, which has greater effectiveness than imaginal exposure in regards to generalized anxiety disorder. The aim of in vivo exposure treatment is to promote emotional regulation using systematic and controlled therapeutic exposure to traumatic stimuli. Exposure therapy is also a preferred method for children who struggle with anxiety.
