This works!

I really got a lot out of this. I was stuck my exposure therapy stopped working. My boundaries were shrinking and my panic attacks were becoming overwhelming. This book was like reading my biography. It was the approach to my exposure that I had wrong. Changing the mind set from white knuckling thru the exposure to one of " anxiety come out and play" sung like the psycho in Warriors was the moment I got it. I have been taking back ground ever since.

Excruciating narrator

Would you be willing to try another one of Eric Michaelian’s performances?

Absolutely not. Sounds like a computer over-pronouncing all of the consonants. Intolerable and should be re-recorded.

For the beginners

Intended for American beginners, very simple examples,half of the book talks that it will teach you something but it gives you one and the same advice throughout the rest of the book.

Excellent

I’ve read Dr Wilson’s other book - Don’t Panic and this is an excellent one as well. He is such a good writer and encourager. The first book and this one together the best books I’ve ever read on panic and anxiety with real solutions and things to do about it to reclaim your life. The narrator was the only negative thing. He sounds like a computer. I ordered the book as well so I could go back and highlight.

Great Book

Best book on psychiatry I've listened to on Audible so far. Looking forward to listening to again soon.

Really help identify how many anxieties I had

Well written, fairly easy to stay in tune with considering how complex and broad the subject is

Poorly Read - Excellent Content

The author is extraordinary. His strategies and tactics for dealing with anxiety are exceptional, as evidenced by the many reviews indicating the book addressed and solved severe anxieties. That said, this audible recording is poor because the reader does not differentiate between the text boxes and the narrative text. The text boxes should not be read as if they were in the natural flow of the narrative text, yet that’s what happens here. I found it extraordinarily confusing, and so purchased the book, which was easy to read. While listening, the reader would run through many examples. These were bulleted list inside text boxes that are placed throughout the book to correlate to the narrative. When they are read as if they are part of the narrative it becomes confusing. I recommend this book highly; I recommend purchasing the physical book and reading it to get the full value.

A doorstep to some freedom

I enjoy Dr. Reid Wilson's laid back, competitive style of confronting anxiety. I am applying the technique and I am finding my days a little easier.

Oops this WAS for me

I listened to this book for a friend and found that it was really for me LOL
Not the first time.
While I don't struggle with anxiety, I do represent several his examples AND solutions.

I figured out for myself to turn in to worry and telling "is that all you got".

This is a great book
