Product Description
PANIC TRICKS YOU
Panic is an insidious trick that makes you fear simple, everyday things: driving, shopping, socializing, traveling and more. The first attack comes out of nowhere, and then panic tricks you into responding in precisely the ways that invite the panic back, again and again.
BUT IT’S JUST A TRICK
The panic trick is highly effective and has drawn millions of people into panic attacks and phobias. But you can outsmart and beat this trick. Panic Attacks Workbook shows you how, with a step-by-step guide from panic to recovery. The proven methods in this book show how to identify the panic trick and empower you with the tools to address your fears and solve this debilitating problem.
STEPS TO RECOVERY
Part 1 details precisely what the panic trick is and how it operates. It also includes exercises to help you find evidence of the trick at work in your own life.
Part 2 starts you on the path to recovery with hands-on lessons that prepare you for the primary program in Part 3.
Part 3 shows you how to design and implement your own desensitization and exposure program that will free you from panic attacks and phobias.
Part 4 offers additional help with the five most common phobias—claustrophobia, social phobia, and the fears of flying, public speaking and driving.
“Dr. Carbonell, a long-time colleague of mine, has written a wonderful, inspiring and comprehensive guidebook for winning over panic attacks. While panic attacks are terrifying for the sufferer, they take over territory in a person’s life by playing a very simple but powerful game. In Panic Attacks Workbook you will find the solid and clever strategies needed to win this mental game and take back your life.” – R. Reid Wilson, Ph.D., author, Don’t Panic: Taking Control of Anxiety Attacks
Panic Attacks Workbook: A Guided Program for Beating the Panic Trick
I bought this book for my mom. I believe that she is enjoying it. The seller was great.
If you are experiencing panic attacks of significant intensity with or without agoraphobia, this is a great book to consider. Dr. Carbonell’s sense of humor is tops and his writing will make you feel at ease. It is, however, a self-guided program that takes extra guts and moderate motivation, which is sometimes hard to muster when you’re experiencing severe anxiety. I tried it for a few weeks and it helped me get back on my feet.
I have only gotten to chapter 5 in this book but from what I’ve read so far this book gives me hope that I CAN over come my panic attacks.
I am a psychologist and often work with anxiety and panic w/clients. I find this book helpful for them to have in conjunction with counseling
A client told me about this book. It is essentially the same process that I use in therapy. Very good self-help book!
