Just what I needed!

I started listening to this book, because I was feeling intense anxiety and I had run out of my anxiety medication. I could really relate to one of the women described by the author. I got as far as the sixth chapter, when I noticed that I was feeling much more relaxed! I was greatly relieved, because meditation hadn’t brought my stress level down. I had also tried escaping my anxiety by listening to a sci-fi story, and that didn’t help, either. My only complaint about this audiobook is that I wish the narrator had a more soothing voice. But I highly recommend the book if you suffer from any kind of anxiety disorder!

The BEST book for dealing with Anxiety or Panic

After a 4+ year struggle with a sudden onslught of Panic and Anxiety, I think I have finally found the definitive answer. Dr. Wilson's book (and the gentleman reading the Audible version is very good too) explains every aspect and detail of this aggressive disorder, which actually begins in the thought processes. Years of grieving after the deaths of my parents and friends back to back and the gradual distancing of my siblings kept a continual stream of stress surging through my body. Then one day the nerves give up and BANG! You have your first Panic Attack, which scares the CRAP out of you, then starts the cycle. Fear of the next attack; where and when it will happen and what will it DO to me???. If this or something similar happened to you and you are caught in the cycle, then this book is your answer. Takes a lot of courage along with tons of time, effort and understanding of the basic "Rules". One day it will all make sense and then the healing begins!
