Product Description

From the Author
If You Feel Alone With Panic Attacks, Read this book!
I was 13 when sitting in a classroom and unable to breathe suddenly. Well, actually, I felt I couldn't breathe. I felt petrified and sick to my stomach. I didn't know what was happening to me and stared at the clock in this math class, not being able to wait til I could get out.

This was the first of hundreds or thousands of panic attacks. I didn't know what I had til I was 25 or so. Although I got through college (miraculously), I couldn't work as a therapist as I'd studied to do.

Within a year of graduating from college, I was housebound. I spent the day on my sofa hyperventiling. I was a zombie. I couldn't eat much as I'd choke even on saliva. I feared everything and barely took the moments to get the mail outside my door.

After many years of therapies and finally medications, my life has made drastic changes. I have a life now. I travel many places besides being able to shop, interact with people, and basically have a life.

Life Isn't Just a Panic is filled with stories and information from the National Institute of Mental Health to give hope to those like me who thought they'd spend the rest of their lives in a living hell.

There is hope. There is recovery. You do have a life and this book tells how others like you did it.

3.0 out of 5 stars A courageous book, 10 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I am very impressed with the editor of this book, Anita L. Pace. I think she is quite courageous--- much more than maybe she knows. Courageous in part for putting together this book. I think it is wonderful that there are first person accounts of living with Agoraphobia in this book.
