Panic: One Man's Struggle with Anxiety

by Harry Floyd

Anxiety and panic are a part of life for almost everyone. They can come without warning, and for many people, facing and overcoming these conditions can be a lifelong battle. In 'Panic,' author Harry Floyd shares his own struggle with anxiety in an effort to guide others who suffer with this often debilitating condition. To combat anxiety in his own life, for years he explored myriad approaches and treatments, including counseling, medication, behavioral techniques, meditation, and spiritual practices, all of which he shares in these pages. Join Harry on his personal journey from anxiety and the paralysis of panic, to self-understanding and acceptance. Among other topics, 'Panic' discusses anticipation and its role in anxiety, how to react when anxiety strikes, understanding the life cycle of a panic attack, trying new habits to combat the condition, trusting oneself, and how openness can make a difference.

[Morgan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very Insightful and moving, PANIC: ONE MAN'S STRUGGLE WITH ANXIETY, was a pleasure to read. It really helped me and gave me the courage to want to find who I am and be ok with what I find. I know this will make me happier and that's my ultimate goal!

"Happiness and peace will come if you actively search for it..."

I found this read to be both inspiring and fundamentally necessary as humans. We can't run from stress or eliminate anxiety but we can become friends with it and try to understand it and try to learn from it.

Thanks Harry Floyd for opening up to me. I promise to pass it on!

Not quite what I expected, but I commend Mr. Floyd for writing this book and putting himself "out there" in this way. It was an extremely generous act.
