The truth is that you can defeat your fears. The author of the four-million-copy bestselling Feeling Good offers 40+ simple, effective CBT-based techniques to overcome every conceivable kind of anxiety—without medication. “Few truly great books on psychotherapy have been published, and this is one of them.”—Albert Ellis, Ph.D., founder of the Albert Ellis Institute and bestselling author of A Guide to Rational Living We all know what it’s like to feel anxious, worried, or panicky. What you may not realize is that these fears are almost never based on reality. When you’re anxious, you’re actually fooling yourself, telling yourself things that simply aren’t true. See if you can recognize yourself in any of these distortions: All-or-Nothing Thinking: “My mind will go blank when I give my presentation at work, and everyone will think I’m an idiot.” Fortune Telling: “I just know I’ll freeze up and blow it when I take my test.” Mind Reading: “Everyone at this party can see how nervous I am.” Magnification: “Flying is so dangerous. I think this plane is going to crash!” Should Statements: “I shouldn’t be so anxious and insecure. Other people don’t feel this way.” Self-Blame: “What’s wrong with me? I’m such a loser!” Mental Filter: “Why can’t I get anything done? My life seems like one long procrastination.” Using techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on practical, solution-based methods for understanding and overcoming negative thoughts and emotions, When Panic Attacks gives you the ammunition to quickly defeat every conceivable kind of anxiety, such as chronic worrying, shyness, public speaking anxiety, test anxiety, and phobias, without lengthy therapy or prescription drugs. With forty fast-acting techniques that have been shown to be more effective than medications, When Panic Attacks is an indispensable handbook for anyone who’s worried sick and sick of worrying.

A new title in the Q&A Health Guides series, this book tackles readers' questions regarding anxiety and panic attacks, dispelling misconceptions and examining real-world scenarios that highlight important concepts and controversies. How is social anxiety different from shyness or introversion? Are anxiety disorders only a problem in the Western, industrialized world, and if not, are they expressed differently in other cultures? Why do some people suffer from panic attacks while others do not? What kinds of therapy and medication are available for anxiety? What happens in therapy? How can well-meaning family and friends help a person with an anxiety disorder rather than make things worse? Anxiety and Panic Attacks: Your Questions Answered addresses all of these topics and much more, presenting information in a question-and-answer format that makes finding the desired information easy. The book begins with a "Guide to Health Literacy" section that explains what health literacy is and provides readers with tools to improve their health literacy, and then examines five myths and misconceptions about anxiety and supplies five case studies that provide real-world context and reinforce the concepts discussed in the book. All of the Greenwood Q&A Health Guides series books are specifically designed to provide readers with authoritative yet accessible answers to their questions in a concise, targeted resource that they can trust to be medically accurate.

This book is not for everyone. If you think that there is a simple remedy, a kind doctor, or one pill that can instantly relieve you of anxiety and fear, I have to disappoint you: nothing like this exists. To change your mental state, you will need to work on yourself, and that will require your active participation and determination. But all your efforts will be greatly rewarded when you finally overcome your own resistance and triumph over your problem, whether it is fear, anxiety, or panic attacks. This is a journey with a prize at the end that is worth every single step that you take on your way to it: greater awareness, self-control, inner peace, and self-confidence. Who is this book for. If you are ready to actively take action, make effort, and consciously work on changing your mental state, an exciting journey that will help you regain your wellbeing, positive attitude, and cheerfulness of spirits awaits us. Drawing from a decade of work with hundreds of clients, this book weaves different cases of anxieties, panic attacks, fears, and so on with techniques to defeat them. The result is a provocative read that provides 3 effective methods to overcome the most of your phobias: EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUE (EFT); EYE MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION AND REPROCESSING (EMDR); DAVID BERCELI'S METHOD. However, if you prefer to stay passive, despairing, and hoping that someone or something will help you without an effort on your part, you should not read this book. It will not help you. My book describes techniques for working on your inner state. Choose one technique that works for you in your current circumstances and use it until you reach a tangible result. All of the methods that this book describes work well with each other and can be practiced consecutively or concurrently. What is truly important is not which technique you choose, but that you actually use it. This book is a tool chest. And tools do not do anything by themselves. They wait until a person takes them in their hands and begins to use them to create the change that they want in their life. I am offering you a way to learn these tools, but the rest depends on you. Sometimes I get asked: "How effective are these techniques? How fast will they give the results?" My response is: "And how effective is a plane or a saw?" The faster a human hand directs a saw, the faster it saws. The better a person uses a plane, the more effective it is. "Well, and how should we learn these techniques so that they work fast and effectively?" people ask me. It is very easy: just start using them and do it regularly. Each time you will get better and better at it. Use a tool for a week and you will become a master and, in another week, an expert on how to use a particular technique to achieve maximum results. This book is suitable for all genders and ages: men, women, children, teens, and adults.
