This review is from: Coping with Panic: A Drug-Free Approach to Dealing with Anxiety Attacks (Paperback)

Clum's book was recommended to me by a psychologist friend after I experienced several panic/anxiety attacks, a disorder which she had also suffered. The attacks were "life changing" experiences that I would do almost anything to avoid repeating. This book helped immensely by explaining what was going on and how to deal with the fear and shame a person with anxiety faces. It gives you insight into the anxiety process and tools to deal with the anxiety cycle. It is easy to read. Of course, anyone with severe panic/anxiety problems should consult an appropriate health professional also. There is help available and this book is amazing.
