Possible Treatment for General Anxiety Disorder?

Looking for a treatment general anxiety disorder? Aren't all of us sufferers? I got the opportunity to try another product (for free this time thanks to the publisher, but the usual cost is $17). It is called How to Prevent Panic Attacks Permanently. Pretty lofty goal, ain't it?

With its goal of being a possible treatment general anxiety disorder, the book tries hard, and in some spots prevails. The book's tone is very anti-traditional medicine. I can't blame the author because I have had great trouble with doctors and my anxiety disorder panic attacks. Most try to throw pills at you. This book doesn't advocate medicine, and it provides a few good techniques.

While it has good techniques, at times the writing can drone on and on. If it was simplified to just the methods, it'd be amazing. Now let me get to the methods, I found a few (but not all) to be helpful. For the price, I'd expected less. If you are looking for a nice read for a road trip, I'd buy it. If you are looking for solid longterm help, not so much. It falls short of its lofty goal.

My review of How to Prevent Panic Attacks Permanently:

Ease of Use: 3/4 stars

Price: 4/4 (Even if you don't get it for free like I did, $17 is not bad)

Effectiveness: 2.8/4 stars (some decent techniques)

Overall: 3/4 stars

Is it a possible treatment general anxiety disorder? Possible, Yes! Permanent, No!

With Love,

Treatment of Panic Disorder: Holy Grail?

A lot of products attempt to create a treatment of panic disorder. I've tried many and many, and some have been terrible and some have been decent. I've learned a few techniques to make my last panic attack my panic attack last (cool word transition I know). I recently met with (I know, like in person, for real) the owner of a new product called Panic Away. Before the interview, he sent me a free copy of his book to see if I could review it.

The thing I liked about him, he's one of us. He was a sufferer, and he found many solutions. His treatments of panic disorder are interesting and informative. He gets excited about the topic, and as a result, he can get longwinded and fast paced when he speaks about treatment of panic disorder. Luckily, this doesn't translate into the book.

Enough with my interview of social anxiety disorder treatment specialist Brad. Let's get to the book.

My favorite part of the book is that it is more than a mere book. He includes free coaching, audio files, and presentations which aid in the understanding of the techniques. Personally I was blown away by these additions. The book itself is well-written (except for the occasional typo, gotcha Brad) and provides excellent techniques. While the techniques are not perfect (75-80% of them helped me), they are better than most options I have seen. This is one of the few online products that I can recommend for treatment of panic disorder.

My review of Panic Away:

Ease of Use: 4/4 (coaching, audio, and presentations make it braindead easy)

Effectiveness: 3.7/4 (almost all techniques work, 75-80% worked for me)

Price: 3.9/4 (just the book, with the addon's it is a 4+/4)

Overall: 3.9/4

What Causes Anxiety Attacks...and can this solve it?

What causes anxiety attacks? It's an age old question, and for all of us it is a different trigger or catalyst. For me, my anxiety is triggered by agoraphobia. Whenever I get into public areas with many people, I freak out. To stop my anxiety attacks from being triggered, I scoured the Internet for a solution. I looked at WebMD, et al. They offered some solutions.

I came across this product called Panic Miracle. Unfortunately, it was far from perfect. It gave a few tactics to attack panic stop, but I was not impressed. Most of the tactics were rehashed from WebMD and stuff I had heard from some other panic attack sufferers that are my friends.

While I would not buy it again, it did have one tactic which was helpful for agoraphobic attacks (which is my form). While I don't feel that this one tactic was worth the full purchase price, for others it may be.

My Review Conclusions:

Ease of Use: 2.5/4 stars

Effectiveness: 2/4 stars

Price: 2.8/4 stars (depends on how you feel about the one effective tactic)

Overall (not a mere average): 2/4 stars

As Always and with love,

You may wonder why my blog is called Attack Panic Stop. It's a little inside joke that I have with myself. I actually suffer from dyslexia and anxiety disorder panic attacks. As you can guess, when dealing with medical professionals, I sometimes write attack panic stop rather than stop panic attack.
