This review is from: Mastery of Your Anxiety and Panic- Third Edition Client Workbook (Paperback)
A counselor recommended this book to me and it's been very helpful. I had heard about the panic cycle before: physical sensations, fearful thoughts about the sensations, which leads to anxiety and more physical sensations. This book discusses ending that cycle at both the physical level and the thought level. To simplify the book to its barebones, the two ways we can help ourselves physically is through breathing exercises and through relaxation exercises. To change our thoughts, we have to recognize two ways we distort our thinking - blowing things out of proportion and jumping to wrong conclusions. With these tools, I did learn to take control of my fears and realized that much of my symptoms is tied in with incorrect breathing habits. The chapter about distorted thinking applies not only to anxiety but to many other aspects of life for anxiety-sufferers, as we tend to blow things out of proportion (especially negative things) and jump to wrong (and usually negative conclusions). This book is somewhat clinical but also very practical and very easy for a layperson to use. There are many anxiety/panic workbooks out there but I believe this is one of the most highly regarded (hence, the high price tag!) Expensive but well worth it!

My psychologist used this book to help me get over my horrible bouts of anxiety and panic. I found the tools very helpful. In fact many years later I still use some of the tools to help me cope in uncomfortable situations. I think there are forms that go along with it that you can purchase also...or you might be able to dummy up your own forms based on the information in the book.
