Describes how anxiety disorders can affect a sufferer's life and offers advice on learning to manage anxiety-producing thoughts and behavior
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Raeann Dumont specializes in the treatment of anxiety disorders. She lives in New York City.
Professional therapist Dumont writes for those millions of people whose lives are being "blighted by irrational fears." Whether a person suffers from some unnamed terror, an incapacitating anxiety, or a behavior they can't stop, Dumont believes that all are victims of "magic thinking," in which a conclusion has been formed without a rational thought process. She details this type of thinking and how it can come to dominate people's lives. Case studies of sufferers are presented, including a woman who experiences panic attacks in public places; a man terrified of driving over bridges; and a teenage boy who stops eating for fear of being poisoned. The last section gives pragmatic advice for recognizing fallacious thinking and setting both short-term and long-range goals to relieve these debilitating reactions. This book should also be quite helpful for those trying to aid someone with these problems. Brian McCombie
