I personally enjoyed reading this book, my daughter has anxiety issues and I have been searching for a more detailed explanation of the disorder, the kids of disorders and how they occur.  What are the triggers for anxiety and how many different kinds of anxiety are there?  This book is excellent for those with questions and for those who want to understand this disease.  I was unaware of how many people are affected by anxiety disorders.  I know of a lot of people myself but was not aware of the actual amount.  The author gives a great account of things he has gone through to help in understanding and I commend him for sharing.I am glad that I read this book as well because not only does it give a background of the different types of anxiety but it also talks about the medications that are out there.  I was also unaware of the effects of using benzodiazepines over time, I cannot give the answers here you will have to read this book to find out.  Not only did the author give his personal account of his issues with anxiety but he also shared a great deal about how it feels to have attacks, how it feels to have to fear and live each day which gives me greater understanding of what my daughter is going through.  There is so much that I learned that answers so many questions I kept asking myself about why she does certain things and why she has to think in the ways that she thinks.  This book is a mist read for those that do not understand anxiety and panic attacks.  It is very informative and a good read.  It will definitely give you some answers that you are looking for.  I am going to let my daughter read this as well so maybe she can help herself to understand the things she goes through.  In helping your children or loved ones it is better to know about the issues and understand them so you are able to relate to them when things happen.  Maybe too help with some approaches to overcome some triggers that cause panic and anxiety attacks.  Great book!
