More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
"When Panic Attacks" answers these questions. It explains the psychology and physiology underlying panic. It makes sense of why a sufferer is radically altered after their first panic attack, and how they come to inhabit a new world full of threats, both external and internal. Dr Aine Tubridy gives an understanding of the innermost thoughts of those who panic. She documents their deep sense of alienation from others, and how they feel split off from a body they can't control. Grounded in years of clinical experience and research , Dr Tubridy shows how you can control panic attacks through a variety of skills. She includes muscle relaxation exercises, thought management, changing avoidance behaviours, exercises targeting the chakra system, homeopathic remedies and psychotherapy. This book calls for a change in the way society looks at this subject, which has been medicalised for too long, rather than being seen as a personal dilemmas to which there is a unique solution. Accompanying "When Panic Attacks" is a free CD on which Dr Tubridy guides you through the main points of the book. It also contains an 'emergency drill' for immediate help on the first signs of an attack and 'maintenance exercises', designed to teach you breathing and relaxation techniques.

This woman really knows what she is talking about. When I put the cd on( that comes with the book)I nearly cried. For the first time someone was able to verbalize what I couldn't. There is no mumbo-jumbo in this book. It's pure fact. Straight to the point. And gives examples of what she is talking about all the way through. No matter what kind of panic attacks you suffer from, no matter if the are mild or severe, this woman can help. Buy it.

I have suffered chronic panic disorder for many years, the only help my GP offered were beta blockers. I spent several years wandering around like a zombie pumped full of Inderal...feeling even more awful!
I decided to do some reading on my symptoms and bought several books - fortunately this was one of them! What an absolute find, it has helped me really get in control of my disorder even to the point where I do not rely on any medication.
Thank you Dr Tubridy, you have changed my life!

Disappointing
This book was highly recommended to me, but I found it a bit patronising and ultimately of no use. I could not relate to the stuff about centering etc, I was disappointed with it.
