can someone please message me the article ... i can't view the website :-(

I agree glee08. I think individuals come to this forum to gain valuable information from other sufferers on what has worked for them. Do people join with the thinking they are going to obtain data taken straight from a textbook? I know that isn't why i joined the forum.

I actually come here to get away from all that big worded mumbo jumbo. It's real here, full of people like me. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to know what anxiety is. It's not that complex.

The website seems to have been taken down so some people can't view it now. I wonder why he took it down?

Oh man!! I need that website...I was going to save it to my computer!!

There is plenty of good advice on here.

Tried to tell you....

However, I did print it out and scanned into PDF format to get my therapists take on it. A pro's point of view so to speak.

LOL your therapist won't like it because it makes him/her no money.

Lol, you may be right, but I'm sure she does pretty well, she just moved into a new office.

But i think she'll give a pretty objective opinion on it, after all it's her job to be objective, lol.

If I had know there was going to be so much issue taken with my post, I wouldn't have placed it.

Discussions are simply to be looked upon at face value. Members may find value or not, left up to the individual.

Some of the responses on this have become ridiculous. No one should be acting as judge and/or jury on any of this. If a member is looking to validate for whatever the reason, so be it. I seriously doubt if the majority of us are looking for "professional evaluations". We can pay for that on our own.

I'm not sure why the website is down. I do know if I were the owner, after reading some of this nonsense, I would remove it and make it available on request only, which is a shame.

It's to bad when people are trying to help people, this is the outcome. Frankly, I'm not interested in what any professionals opinion is on this or anything else posted.

It's clearly over the top.

I don't hate the guy, I think it's highly commendable what he was doing, albeit questionable. I am also a fellow sufferer, but what now works for me, and I were to devise a guide around and I published it, even if on a free website, I would never recommend to you, it may work for you, it may not, and as much as I truly care for all of you that suffer with anxiety, I would never propose to give you an actual treatment guide without the benefit of education in psychological study, I would simply recommend you try the professional treatment plan and publications that worked for me.

And glee, this was never a personal attack on you, or the material you referenced, that is a true and honest statement. Just a comment on a concern I had about the material itself. That's all. Nothing personal and no hard feelings. I know as deeply and profoundly what anxiety can do to your life as those of you who suffer it as well. i found something that works for me, that has allowed me to quit medication, reduce my anxiety to the point where I attend public functions, feel comfortable in the workplace, attend family and friends gatherings, can get stuck in traffic without fear and many other things that are highly rewarding self esteem wise. I would gladly share what worked for me in the hopes it would work for you guys.

woah , this link doesnt work anymore , any ideas on whats going on... i was enjoying reading that !!!
