5.0 out of 5 stars Gave me back my life - simple as that., 15 April 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Self Help for Your Nerves: Learn to relax and enjoy life again by overcoming stress and fear (Paperback)
This book saved me - no exaggeration. I am a 'big bloke', considered mentally strong by friends, yet when I started getting panic attacks and panic disorder, I watched my life go down the pan, destroyed. Claire Weekes' book described exactly what I was experienceing and showed me how to deal with it. I am now cured, enjoying life once more - being normal.

Do not dimiss this book, like I did when a friend first recommended it, as a typical 'new-age' self help book. Just read it. If you do as she says you cannot help but be cured, as far-fetched as that might seem to you now. I cannot recommend it highly enough to anybody suffering from panic, anxiety, stress or 'nerves'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly helpful!, 26 Feb 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Self Help for Your Nerves: Learn to relax and enjoy life again by overcoming stress and fear (Paperback)
This book was recommneded to me and I'm so glad I bought it. I've had it a couple of years now and straight away it stopped me being scared of the more constant physical symptoms and that alone gave me confidence. The panic part is a bit harder and I do still have to work on that from time to time but each time I do I read the book again, going over the paticular bits I find comforting.
I've bought a few books now by other writers and while they were not too bad this really has to be the definitive book on this subject she just seems know exactly how we all feel and I wonder if we all feel bits of the book are written just for us - its amazing her understanding and she just instills confidence and hope all through the book. I have also recently bought another title by her 'Essential help for your nerves' a two part volume and if agoraphobia is of interest to you then she covers this very well in that.
The style of writing is straightforward and reassuring and will appeal to men just as much as women as it sticks to the point and all feels so sensible.
It would be great if the tapes she has made were more readily available and maybe put onto CD as I would like to try those too to keep reinforcing the solutions at any time when I'm not feeling 'sensible'.
I really can't recommend this book highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Got to be the Best so Far, 13 Jan 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Self Help for Your Nerves: Learn to relax and enjoy life again by overcoming stress and fear (Paperback)
I've tried many things - the Linden Method didn't work; and other stuff. This book is amazing. Reading it is like taking a tranquiliser. I wonder why it's so unpublicised, because in some ways to me - it looks easier than cognitive therapy. Maybe if it was used in conjunction with cognitive therapy it would be unstoppable.
