From Panic to Power: Proven Techniques to Calm Your Anxieties, Conquer Your Fears, and Put You in Control of Your Life

Annoyed

Pretty Annoyed at the fact that this book was supposed to be available mid-November and now it is postponed until mid-December. Waste of money in my opinion if I have to wait forever.

This book has helped me tremendously for years!

I have her program "Attacking Anxiety and Depression". It's a very costly program, but helpful. This book is like a huge piece of the program in an easy to read and relatable book for anyone suffering with depression, or any of the many forms of anxiety. I have several, generalized anxiety disorder, ocd, panic disorder, PTSD, etc, and this book is something I can pick up to help me through any of the hard times with the symptoms of these disorders. I HIGHLY suggesst it to ANYONE suffering with these disorders. It gives you help and hope. Her story helps you remember YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS!!! Millions suffer with these issues, and she's a true inspiration, turning her Anxiety into The Midwest Center for Stress and Anxiety, The Attacking Anxiety and Depression Program, and multiple self help books. You will not regret purchasing this book. I've had it for years, and it still helps me today!

Deal With Causes The Anxiety First

This is great for dealing what ails you but as one of my favorite books, "When God Stopped Keeping Score" shares, you must first learn the moment when something or someone failed you before you can learn how to deal with what truly ails you.

It is remarkable

I loved it and treasure each word said because it really helps

A Must Read

This book has been very inspireing for me. I never thought that a book could change your life, but this book has done just that. You can definitly benefit from reading this book. What do you have to lose.

Must Try

If you suffer with anxiety and panic attacks, you HAVE to read this book. It helped me so much that I have shared my copy with many of my friends. They ALL agreed that it was helpful. It is easy to read and offers many coping strategies.

Don't Waste Your Time

Very, very disappointing. I hear her commercials all of the time and think she must be very good at what she does - this book just repeats info from other books and concentrates mostly on others' stories. Nothing to learn here.

BEST BOOK YOU'LL EVER BUY

I highly recommend this book. I've suffered from anxiety, mild depression (from anxiety) and panic attacks. This book along with Lucinda's home study course has given me my life back. Im not fully recovered yet because Im still going through the home study course but it's already changed my life in so many ways. I truly thank Lucinda for sharing her life, and being so honest, and for helping all of us sufferers change our lives. Read it and it will change yours. Her honesty and experience with anxiety is far more helpful than any M.D. or pshycologist I've ever seen for my anxiety. This is book is such a small price to pay to help get your life back...buy the book!

This book is great!

i am not even finished with this book and i feel happier already. I though nothing would be able to help me and nobody would understand. in this book it feels as if Lucinda is talking directly to me and and i finally feel like someone understands my situation.

I hope it helps!

I am purchasing this book tonight. I enjoyed reading the reviews and I really hope this book helps me get rid of my anxiety for ever. Any thought or advice would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail me at EVEREALTOR@hotmail.com. Thanks in advance.

Amazing!

I'm not even finished with this book and I am just amazed with it! It helps you to feel not alone or not being lectured becuase it comes from a personal point of view!! I LOVE THIS BOOK SO FAR! ;)

this book saved my life!

I developed severe panic disorder when I was 17 years old. I sought help from Dr.s of all sorts. I was convinced that my problem was medical. My Dr.s were convinced that it was a parasite. In three months I went from 135 pounds to 83 pounds and on the verge of death. I had developed a fear of food, a fear of leaving the house, eventually a fear of even leaving my couch. This book taught me things about myself that I had never understood. I could have never imagined that there were other people who had suffered from the same things. I am now 20 years old, 115 pounds, and as happy and as healthy as can be. I highly reccomend this book to anyone suffering from panic and anxiety.

Excellent Book for those with Anxiety!!!!

This book is excellent for readers who are suffering from anxiety, panic or obsessive-compulsive disorders. It is written by a former anxiety sufferer, so it is really easy to relate to and almost everyone with anxiety will identify with part of the book. It also gives practical advice on how to change certain behaviors to combat anxiety attacks or anxious feelings. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has(or knows someone who has) anxiety or panic attacks.

Helpful

I began reading the book last night and finished it this morning. I have suffered from Panic Disorder since it's onset 17.5 years ago. It's a LONG story. Someone I met recently told me about Ludinda's tapes, so I looked it up on the Internet, found out about this book and purchased it to see if I'd be interested in purchasing her tapes. The treatment that I've received for Panic Disorder (which I found out I had after 7.5 years of not knowing what it was), was limited to antidepressants (which I had to take because of severe depression for 4.5 years which I suffered from a lot of the reason being that I didn't know I had panic disorder.) I did go to an outpatient program for depression once, but as far as how in the world to get over the left over dregs of Panic Disorder, there really wasn't anything to tell me how to do that. (My severe panic attacks stopped after the first 2 years.) Reading through Lucinda's book last night and this morning, she took me through exercises in which I needed to write down different things, and do different execises. She explained all of the traits a person with panic disorder has, why they have them and how to get rid of them, and, how that will change a person back to what they should be instead of being not healthy with panic problems. She expained it clearly, and it makes sense. I cried a number of times while reading the book because of all of the pain that I've been through because of panic disorder. Toward the end of the book, there began to be a pervading feeling of hope. She leads us to trust again. She leads us all throughout the book to relax. I don't know if these suggestions and this advice will work or not, but I would LOVE to get over my problems with anxiety that have controlled my life for SO long. The ideas and suggestions might. We'll see. I recommend this book.

The best book I've ever read on anxiety and panic

I can't believe the person who wrote the last review even read this book. This book is so wonderful and sensitive. There is nothing negative or depressing about it. In fact, it is so uplifting and motivating and it gives people a tremendous amount of hope. The author shares her personal story and gives insight after insight about why people struggle with worry, fear, and all the stuff that goes with it. I wonder if the person who wrote this last review was just trying to put out negative energy about this book for their own personal reasons...that's okay...this book speaks for itself. It has been around along time. You want a great read, read it, enjoy, and get your strength back. A big fan of From Panic To Power

Disappointing

This book was disappointing because there were way too many stories about other people's problems and their troubles. Most people who are purchasing a book about how to overcome anxiety already know they have some form of an anxiety disorder. To read these depressing stories - some tragic - was not comforting or helpful at all. They only made me feel worse. There were a few generic 'helpful hints', but overall - not helpful to those who have a more severe or advanced anxiety disorder.

WORTH THE READ!!!

I wasn't yet diagnosed with Panic Disorder 4 years ago and wanted something to help me through the anxiety. It was wonderful to read how others came out of the disorder and gave me strenght to overcome my disorder.

overpassing fear

I have read an excerpt of this book, and what I have percieved is that there is so much more to this book that I now have the desire of purchasing and reading it. Check this book out, you will be blessed!

Book I hope saves my future!!

I liked the way the author shared her anxiety experiences. I read the book one chapter each day, and try to take notes. The book has opened my eyes of this disorder and the examples that are shown, make me realize I'm not alone or going crazy. But I do have Two things I wish the authored provided, a workbook, and/or a CD/Tape to work with. I know the author does provide a program that you can send for but it is costly.

Dont be afraid to take a big step

When I decided to walk into Barnes and Noble looking for a book on how to control anxiety, well, I was very 'anxious', I purchased it feeling stressed and afraid of what I was going to find about myself in this book, and I found the most wonderful thing: The Truth about myself!! and the full understanding of why I feel the way I do, I just finished the book and I can tell you that I have already improved in some areas, it gives you great techniques to help yourself, and it makes you feel like you are not alone, and most of all understood. I recommed it highly!! You can definetely overcome anxiety.
