Light at the End of the Tunnel for Panic and Anxiety Attack Sufferers e-book

Little is know about the effective treatment of panic and anxiety sufferers. And that’s mostly because little is know about the personality traits of a panic and anxiety sufferer. To most clinicians, these individuals generally present themselves as out of control individuals who are irresponsible, immature, and in great need of attention (secondary gain). Treatment of these individuals is haphazard at best. And even though there is some success accomplished by this haphazard shot gun type of approach, success rates are usually limited to the 30% range.

When I say haphazard, I mean that the clinician usually uses the same or very similar techniques with panic and anxiety disorders that they use with the general public for most other presenting issues. In other words, if the clinician specializes in rebirthing, he/she will use some form of rebirthing. If the clinician specializes in behavioral modification, he/she uses a behavioral modification approach—biofeedback (a biofeedback awareness model)…

And even though these approaches may work well for other specific presenting problems, the best that can be hoped for is roughly 30% success which by the way is the success rate generally achieved by the placebo sugar pill.

With most clients suffering from panic/anxiety disorder, no complications are encountered using these various approaches, however, for the chronic acute panic sufferer, many of these approaches may create an emergency trip to the hospital in that the approach used will trigger anxiety attacks in these individuals. As more is learned about why some approaches work and others fail, the acute anxiety sufferer may ultimately be suing the irresponsible clinician for mal practice. To my knowledge, it hasn’t been done yet.

As we discover the true nature of the panic attack sufferer’s personality, we find that information to be the key to the cure of the problem. Truth is that panic and anxiety attack sufferers are highly responsible individuals--responsible to a fault. We also find they are somewhat naïve in their thinking. They are also Type A perfectionists with high expectations of themselves. It’s these expectations, their perfectionist tendencies, and their extreme responsible nature that contributes to anxiety and panic attacks.

And unless any program successfully deals with the flaws in the inter-workings of their personality, they will either become anxious again or substitute to another presenting problem.

They also rely heavily upon their ability to come to conclusions and are totally unskilled in observing.

Add to their personality a total ignorance of their body’s normal reactions to stress (how the general adaptation syndrome works) and a real challenge is created.

Light at the end of the tunnel is about clearing up the ignorance of panic and anxiety sufferers. It truly is a disease of ignorance. However, because of years and years of negative conditioning, education, shifts in cognitions, and instruction in new skills is insufficient.

Most clinicians use inward focusing techniques enhancing self awareness whereas this type of approach will cause anxiety and panic attacks in acute sufferers. The book demonstrates the importance of shifting to outward concentration skills and uses an awakened hypnotic (NLP) technique to break through the conclusion trap and open the path to observation so that eventually the individual can simply notice changes in heart rate, breathing, muscle tension and be amused as opposed to ending up in the emergency ward.

Permanent change is fostered with skills in handling life’s disappointments for we often find that life is more about dealing with the plans that fall through than it is about making goals. And without these skills, individuals of this personality type have little choice but to create anxiety. This book is for the individual suffering from occasional anxiety as well as for the individual suffering from acute panic anxiety attacks.
