Customer Reviews

Great book!

This is an excellent book, reading through other women experiences helped me so much, I felt like I wasn't the only weird one feeling like that, and there's other people out there feeling like me. It's a wonderful book, I always pick it up now and then, when I'm starting to feel the panic coming back and the unreasonable thoughts. I highly recomend it. For everybody out there struggling with any kind of panic disorder, be patient with yourself, you'll feel better!

very detailed, easy to understand, thorough research

This book made it very comforting to know that panic disorder is not uncommon. All the experiences the women felt in the book, I too felt and was able to relate to. This definately helps you self heel yourself from this disease. Highly recommened for women suffering from panic disorder or anxiety attacks.

A supportive resource for anxiety sufferers.

Gives women,young or 'senior' a genuine feeling of hope. Fromthe very first pages of Lorna Weinstock and Eleanor Gilman'scomforting and comprehensive book about dealing with anxiety disorders,the reader experiences a renewed sense of optimism and immense relief. For those of us who have labored with anxiety,the 'fear of fear',the case studies ring familiar and are a great comfort. Information re medications and'current practice' therapies afford one the chance to make informed choices and participate in self recovery with a growing sense of control. I highly recommend this thoughtfully written guide to WELLNESS!
