Product Description

Product Description

Formerly part of the Thorsons Health series, this title has become the bible for panic attack sufferers. We're taking it out of the series and giving it an even stronger look. "Panic Attacks became my bible. It explained how to face up to attacks and deal with them! I carried it around in my bag, left a copy in my desk draw at work, and dipped into a chapter before I went to sleep. Miraculously, it seemed to do the trick. " SUNDAY TIMES, STYLE SECTION. Our authoritative guide explains what panic attacks are, why they happen and what every sufferer can do to empower themselves, regain control and make panic a thing of the past. Containing a helpfully broad range of topics including: What to do during an attack / What's happening during an attack / Self-help to prevent attacks from developing / Information for friends & relatives about panic attacks / Lifestyle, therapies and complementary therapies. / Useful 'Summary' box at the end of each chapter. Panic attacks is consistently straightforward, informative and reassuring.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect read to start you on your recovery, 19 July 2003
By E. Beeken (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I opened this book with a bit of trepidation. I wasn't sure if I would be unleashing yet another panic attack simply by reading it. I have to tell you I was amazed at how calmed I felt. My first impression was that "at last, someone else understands!" and I was truly stunned at how many symptoms I had gotten "used" to, and near enough forgotten about. It was shocking to learn how far I had let my own needs slip, and how many things were all contributing to my panic attacks. It was a real eye-opener and it gave me the confidence to say to myself that I DID deserve to get better and treat myself with TLC. As I neared the middle of the book, I even found myself a little disappointed at the thought that I might not have another panic attack! haha... They are scary, but after having it confirmed that they are no-where near as bad as they feel, I began to find them interesting.
As it turns out, I have had two in the space of a month (about 80% less than usual) and since I had learned a few "tools" to get over them faster, the lingering grottiness that follows was not as bad as usual. Just knowing that I could recover, and also that I could do it largely on my own was a real confidence booster. I have already bought more specific books on yoga, assertiveness and cognitive behavioural therapy, and I am exercising regularly and eating properly, and taking time out for ME when I need to. I have to say, even though I know have a long way to go, I am feeling a lot better already.
If I ever met Christine I would give her a big hug. This book has given me the confidence to get over that very difficult first step and an excellent foundation for the rest of my recovery. Thank you very much Christine! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars This book really helped me, buy it!!!!!, 14 Dec 2004
By A Customer
After having suffered panic attacks and severe anxiety for nearly a year now i bought three books from Amazon to try and firstly get some information and reasurance and also to hopefuly find some solutions.

This is an easy to read and relativley short book that can be either read cover to cover or dip in and out of as required. The content is very good, well written and offers the reader no matter how many attacks they have had, a lot of confidence and the knowing that thousands of others are going through the same expreiences.

I would totally recommend this book to anyone and i am certain that it will help, good luck to you all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good for anyone experiencing panic., 24 May 2005
By A Customer
Panic attacks are horrible. If you've ever had them, you know what I mean. This book helps to explain things others overlook and goes into more detail than others I've read. I like the approach this book has to panic and it's no-nonsense attitude. If you're having panic attacks right now, this is a good book to read to help you understand them more. Others that can help are: "The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook" and "What If--My Story Of Panic Attacks".
