Editorial Reviews

Review

I'M FREE! This book has opened my eyes to life outside anxiety attacks. Once I realized that I was not alone and other individuals like Rafe had experienced the fear and seclusion that I once felt, I was able to embrace these attacks and take the steps mentioned in his book to accept my anxiety attacks for what they were and overcome my fear of them.

It was a tough road to recovery. Fortunately, there are people like Rafe who have helped me through this journey by sharing his experiences and strategies.

This is a must read for anyone who is currently experiencing anxiety/panic attacks and those who have experienced these attacks in the past but have not fully come to grips with them. -- Stefan P. Cox, President, SPC Strategies, Inc.

Rafe has opened the window of his heart in this book, allowing us to experience his journey of pain, suffering, and recovery. His honesty, integrity, compassion and practicality will provide hope and help for those who battle with anxiety disorders. -- Dr. Steven F. Ward, Clinical Therapist

- stop a panic attack dead in its tracks
- start doing the things you enjoy again

5.0 out of 5 stars Tremendously insightful book, June 19, 2008
This review is from: Your Life is Waiting: The Average Joe's Guide to Overcoming Panic Attacks and Anxiety (Paperback)
Of all the books I've read on panic disorders, this was by far the easiest one for me to connect with. The author's style of writing made me feel as though he was an old friend having a conversation with me. As a sufferer of panic attacks, I felt like this book most accurately captured how I feel when panic sets in. The book was such an easy read, I passed it along to my family, and they found it very helpful. The author delivers his message in plain English. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has any experience with panic disorders.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Help, February 24, 2009
This review is from: Your Life is Waiting: The Average Joe's Guide to Overcoming Panic Attacks and Anxiety (Paperback)
This book gives the reader a vivid description of the life-stealing realities of panic attacks and agoraphobia. Rafe doesn't stop there, though. He outlines his own journey to take back control over his life. Instead of turning to medication, he used simple, yet effective strategies to recover. As a counselor, I recognized many of the strategies that Rafe successfully used. I will definitely recommend this book to anyone I work with who is struggling with high anxiety, panic attacks or agoraphobia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I needed to overcome anxiety!, January 29, 2008
This review is from: Your Life is Waiting: The Average Joe's Guide to Overcoming Panic Attacks and Anxiety (Paperback)
I really connected with Rafe as I read about his experiences with panic attacks and agoraphobia. It's good to know that someone has been through the same things that I'm going through now, and to know that panic attacks and anxiety are not going to be permanent for me. I love his conversational tone. He explains things in a way that is easy to understand. He also states early on that he's just an "average Joe" that has lived through this. That's what I was looking for. Definitely no doctor speak in this book. I'm getting my life back! Thanks, Rafe.
