Very good but misses one important factor

I am very familiar with the pain of anxiety, panic attacks, and agoraphobia for I suffered from these maladies for several decades. During those years of suffering I underwent treatment by psychiatrists, psychologists, and hypnotherapists. I took various prescribed medications and read many books, of which this was one of the best, but still I experienced little relief. And then, after I began taking a daily supplement of chelated magnesium for another seemingly-unrelated ailment, for the first time I began experiencing significant diminishment of anxiety. There seemed to be no explanation for this wonderful change until the publication in 2003 of the book The Miracle of Magnesium by Dr. Carolyn Dean. In her wonderful book Dr. Dean reveals that a major cause of anxiety and panic attacks is deficiency of magnesium and that magnesium deficiency is quite common in the U.S. Therefore, I beg all sufferers of anxiety, panic attacks, and agoraphobia to purchase and read The Miracle of Magnesium by Dr. Carolyn Dean and try the magnesium supplementation which she recommends. It may change your life as has changed mine.

Life Changing

This is one of the best books I've read on anxiety and panic attacks...I would call it a life-changing book!! The author has been there and knows what it feels like to be anxious and panicky, and he also knows how to combat those serious problems. He helps you through your own anxiety and panic attacks and helps you to understand both why you have them and how to conquer them. He describes methods of curing yourself both on a conscious level and also on a subconscious (perhaps you can call it spiritual) level. He helps you learn to meditate and use affirmations & vizualizations to reduce the anxiety in your everyday life. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is anxious, panicky, or terrified and needs some strong answers quickly!!

An excellent resource

This book is an excellent resource on techniques on how to overcome anxiety/panic attacks. It was well written and the instructions were easy to follow. This book has made a tremendous difference in my life in a very short period of time (about 1 month).

Hits the mark in every area

Robert Handly has been there. He tells it like it is and I appreciate his candor and his compassion. Of all the books about this dibilitating dilemma, his is the best I have read.
