Packed with useful information that can begin reducing the power of these attacks immediately, this perennial seller is an invaluable tool for the millions of Americans coping with this crippling condition.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Ehhhh...you be the judge. Everyone's different.
I had my first big panic attack recently and then was terrified of having another one! I kept thinking about it and kept feeling "panicky"...on trains, in waiting rooms, and even stores. I met with a therapist who put me on medication but bought this book to "take control of anxiety attacks". I'm not a pill person and want to get off them quickly. Honestly, I couldn't relate to the first few sections of the book. The second parts are more beneficial. Overall, a good buy if you want to learn how anxiety ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't Read If You Have Health Anxiety!
I have panic disorder which has caused heart anxiety. The very first pages of this book are SCARY. They talk about real and fatal physical problems that can cause symptoms like Panic Disorder before they even talk about Panic Disorder.

They do nothing to reassure readers that if they have had a diagnoses of Panic Disorder that the symptoms truly are just nervous symptoms. In fact, this book even goes so far as to talk about the amount of people that have had severe heart problems that are ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great book, a must for anyone from panic and anxiety
I have been dealing with anxiety and panic on and off for the past 7 years or so. My undertsanding is that this is partly because of my genetic makeup and also some pretty nasty hormonal changes which is the root of the casue. During the past 7 years I have done a lot of research and reading in relation to anxitey and panic. i have to say that this book, is the first of many I have read that has been tremendous help and has put me on a path to recovery. You need to use this book in conjunction with a good ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - it didn't help my mother
My mother has been suffering from anxiety attacks for several months and I got her this book thinking it would help her understand things better -- unfortunately, I think the way the book goes into the details of having an anxiety attack was too much for her and she started having more of them. She wasn't able to go beyond a certain point in the book and I told her not to bother.

My mother will be 80 in January, and these attacks scare her quite a bit (plus, she lives alone). I wouldn't argue ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you want help helping yourself this book is for you...
This is an interesting and informative book for those suffering from anxiety and panic attacks. If you or someone close to you suffers from panic and anxiety, and you are ready for a change, buy a couple of copies of this book. I have suffered from anxiety my whole life, I bought this book, read it and then bought a copy for my mother. It can help you change the attitudes with which you deal with your anxiety (or your anxious loved one) and show you the road to recovery. I have spent lots of money on phobia ...
