Staring Down Panic Brian D Ott

One in four people will experience a panic attack some time in their life. For many the anxiety will continue, consuming more and more time and energy each day in failed efforts to feel better. The strategies that have previously been helpful in dealing with day-to-day stress don't work. The advice to "just face your fears" does not put a stop to the constant worry that the panic will return. If this sounds familiar, this book is for you. This book will help you make sense of what you feel and demonstrates how to once again live a life not controlled by the avoidance of anxiety triggers. "Staring Down Panic is a must-read for those who experience impairing anxiety and panic, medical and behavioral health professionals who encounter them, and psychotherapists who aspire for excellence in the effective treatment of anxiety and panic."
