Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Interoceptive Aversive Memory Reactivation

In order to reactivate interoceptive aversive memory, participants will be asked to breathe a medical grade 35% CO2/65% O2 gas mixture which produces somatic perturbations. The 35% CO2 challenge is a widely used and safe symptom induction technique that has been utilized in our laboratory in several experiments. Participants will be informed that breathing the gas is safe, but that it will likely cause changes in their physical sensations. Participants will specifically be asked to breathe the gas mixture normally with their mouth open through an oxygen mask for 10 seconds.
