The best ones I have ever found in my LIBRARY of books and programs lol.

Look up the program...Lucinda Basset and the midwest center for stress and anxiety (just type in Lucinda Basset and make payments if you can bc this program is WORTH TWICE as much as it costs!!!!)

A book called "From Panic To Power"

A book I cant find at the moment but darn it, its good! Its full of so many questions we ALL have about anxiety and panic attacks and has a doctor's answer for every one of them! I'll find it and let you know.

Also I'm looking into a Claire Weeks book right now bc I hear such good things! We could get it at the same time and compare notes lol.

(((hugs))) dear friend!!!

I have the "Feeling Good Handbook" by david burns and the "Anxiety & Phobia Workbook" by edward bourne. both have alot of the relaxation techniques and writing utensils that help you to realize the difference between your negative thoughts and what is actually true.
I've seen the Overcoming anxiety & depression by Linda Basset but it's pretty pricey and I have never used it so I can't recommend it but it is out there.

I have heard great things about Dr. Claire Weekes as well. I was going to go out and look for her books tomorrow as well.

Oh yes Lucina Bassett is wonderful in that program! Some ppl say its a scam but they must not have done the program right or something bc I found it to be a tremendous help to me!!! It answered all my questions, made me laugh, taught me alot! Made me feel so NOT alone with all the thoughts and fears I have! It was a God send! I personally think it was VERY worth it! And they have a money back guarentee. Everyone feels different about it but man, I cant tell you how it helped me to overcome my fears of dissociative feelings and heart racing and fears of alot of public places. I really need to do the program again bc its been a while. But the work books are helpful! The dvd's the cd's are the best!!!!

Thats just my opinion.

My 4 favorite books are:

Hope and help for your nerves -Dr. Claire Weekes
More Hope and Help for your nerves -Dr.Claire Weekes
Peace from nervous suffering- Dr.Claire Weeked

From Panic to Power-Lucinda Bassett

If you own these 4 books, you will NEVER need to read another one!!!

Highly recommended.....actually a MUST for anxiety sufferers.

The best program I have done is Anxietybusters by Dr. Ronnie Freedman. This book pulled me out of my severe panic and agoraphobia and helped me to lead a relatively normal life. I still suffer when times are stressful - mostly because I forget to use the techniques I learned in the program. The program is pricey, but worth its weight in gold! Also, there is a program called I love Panic Attacks which I haven't done, but I am on the mailing list and get tons of free advice which has also been very helpful in coping.

Thanks for the advice everyone..I am going to start with Panic to Power and go from there. I will also look into some of the Claire Weeks books.

Good for you girl!! Get on the road to recovery!!!!

I've got more selp help books than anyone I know and the one that has the most imformation and tools is The anxiety and phobia workbook,fifth edition,written by Edmund J. Bourne,Phd. I'm sure you would find this book helpful. Good Luck to you
