Who is PADA?

The Panic Anxiety Disorder Association Inc. (PADA Inc) was incorporated in South Australia in 1987. We are a consumer organisation representing people who have an anxiety disorder. We conduct anxiety management programs, hold discussion groups, have a telephone information service and provide other resources to assist people to recover from an anxiety disorder.

Our Philosophy

We believe that recovery from an anxiety disorder is a process of empowering the individual to view their health from a holistic perspective, to recognise their co-dependant behaviours and to make self-responsible choices leading to optimum mental health.
