I found this wonderful book back in the early 1980's after reading it my life changed. I read the book over and over using all of her suggestions. I overcame my agoraphobia and now lead a normal life. I recommend this book to all who suffer from this condition. It is simple and easy to understand and follow. Linda

I read this book in the seventies and it freed me to live again. Dr. Claire Weekes thoroughly understands the anatomy of anxiety and phobias and knows the process that heals shattered nerves. If you need to be healed of panic attacks, grab a used version of this book. Read every word, and put into practice her guiding steps. It works.

I read this book 20 plus years ago. It is from the seventies, I believe. Great cognitive psychology for panic disorder and agorphobia. Provides self-help basics and practice for desensitization. I bought It for another; I was really glad to find it on Amazon.

I just got to page 68 and had to put this book down to write about what I have just read on the book. I have found the answer for what I have been asking myself about what happened to me when I got my first panic attack. the author talks about the "feelings of unreality", and those same feelings are what had led me to my very first PANIC attack. it's been three years and I let the question about what had happened go because I somehow knew the answer already since the very beginning (the heart knows)and just didn't want to prolong this fear. but reading this on the book assured me about what I felt before and sometimes still feel when feeling out of touch with reality. PLEASE, GET THIS BOOK!!!!!!! either from your library or on ebay or [...] or any seller. you will NOT regret this purchase. if I had gotten this book when I first got my panic attack, I would have saved myself 3 years of questioning but that's okay cause regretting the past will only make me regret that I'm regretting now. one does NOT have to be Agoraphobic to read this book, you can have any nervous illness.

Like no other out there. Great book. You'll love it!
