Fear, essential for the survival of the species, is built into our DNA, but when this primitive instinct gets out of control, the resulting anxiety can be paralysing. Agoraphobia is a common complication of anxiety disorder, twice as common in women than in men, and literally means a fear of open spaces. But the reality for house-bound sufferers is a crippling fear of leaving the safety zone of the home in case a panic attack occurs.

Of course worry can be an important asset when it forces our attention on problem solving. But anxious worrying can cause us to unnecessarily focus on threat, to retreat and avoid, and to seek reassurance and safety - which is no way to foster a life of growth and excitement. In his fifth published book, Dr. Reid Wilson proposes a groundbreaking, paradoxical approach to overcoming anxiety and worry by moving away from comfort, confidence, and security and willingly moving toward uncertainty, distress, and discomfort.

Publisher's Summary
Un-Agoraphobic offers a comprehensive, step-by-step self-help program for overcoming agoraphobia and panic attacks. Since overcoming his own disorder twenty years ago, Mathew has been leading support groups and recovery programs for people with agoraphobia. He understands what agoraphobes need and how to deliver it.
No one knows exactly what causes agoraphobia or panic attacks, but it clearly involves some misfirings in the brain. The good news is that recent neuroscience research suggests the brain is retrainable - at any age.
The basis for any recovery plan for anxiety disorders is a highly structured approach each day. Mathew provides a daily schedule that lays out a clear set of steps and considerations for conquering this affliction, including:
- writing every day
- cultivating present-moment thinking
- taking a new approach to food and eating
- choosing a therapist
- starting a peer support group
- using visualization techniques specifically designed for overcoming anxiety and panic
- taking medications, if appropriate
- dealing with children, spouse, parents, friends, coworkers, teachers, bosses, and more
- taking your first trip out of the house
Mathew includes FAQs, general survival tips, and a special chapter on tips for spouses and loved ones.
Un-Agoraphobic is candid, funny, prescriptive, and spot on for panic disorders - by an author with a lot of life experience under his belt.

Content is fine but wrong choice for narrator.
Would you try another book from Hal Mathew and/or Jeff Cummings?
Poor narrator choice. He sounds giddy when talking about an ailment/ disease as if he's reading a magical children's story. The content may be good but not sure people will keep listening. His tone is not matching the subject matter and it may be tough for those suffering to relate. A hint of empathy, understanding or seriousness would been more appropriate.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Jeff Cummings?
Anyone

Awful! Really didn't like this.
Any additional comments?
Thought this book was awful to be absolutely blunt. All the "advice" i have read countless times before with a free google sense. Also felt it was written in a very medical way. Maybe it is more for doctors who want to understand these conditions, but for anyone looking advice to actually overcome them, then is NOT for you. Very disappointed.

I read some good reviews for this book so I had high hopes for it. I shelled out for the rather expensive price and listened to it all - very disappointed. Even thought i would give it a chance and give it a second listen but still hated it. Very very patronising and unhelpful. Made me feel worse.

Interesting stuff
there was some new ways of thinking here - stage 1 2 and 3 agoraphobes for example. and I love the hope and upbeat tone of the book. it is useful to hear things said in a different way. and from life experiences not just book learning
