Therapist and consultant Andrea Perry speaks honestly about her own experience of claustrophobia in what is believed to be the first ever book on the subject. She draws on the views of other people who have experienced similar anxiety, and overcome it. She explores how and why the phobia develops and then provides a huge range of self help strategies to help overcome it. In addition, for those who want to turn to therapy, she provides a comprehensive and insightful assessment of the therapeutic treatments available today.

With this book Andrea Perry has made a superb contribution to our understanding of this complex and ill-understood condition, which we now know affects many millions of people. --Ben Timmis, FRCR, Medical Director, London Upright MRI Centre
This book ticks all the right boxes for me. Written with the authenticity borne of personal suffering and the objectivity of clinical experience, the book cleverly melds the two into a compassionate, satisfying self-help study for anyone with an interest in claustrophobia. The book excels particularly in avoiding the 'trap' of assuming a one-size-fits-all approach to recovery from mental distress. An excellent starting place for understanding claustrophobia in the context of our modern society. --Nicky Lidbetter, Chief Executive, National Phobics Society
Andrea has written an accessible, insightful and above all simple and practical guide to the lived experience of claustrophobia. Journalists are not in the main enthusiastic readers of self-help or psychological manuals. But considering how much of the news involves emotional distress, this is one book they would do well to examine. --Mark Brayne, Former BBC journalist and Director, Europe DART Centre for Journalism and Trauma
