I don't know of one other book that combines biblical truths and metaphysical practices to cure anxiety. I have combined this with my 40 years suffering with agoraphobia to come up with the prescription that anyone can do to cure anxiety. In this book I have described my life that. Included many traumatic events. They describe in early childhood the traumatic event that was responsible for my first anxiety attack. The alcoholism of my mother and the critical and unaffectionate demeanor of my father when I was young are also described in the book as well as partner verbal and physical abuse, an abortion, promiscuity and multiple miscarriages. I also describe my years in New York the acting school I enrolled in, a love affair with an acting student and our trip across country and our eventual break up after the abortion. After most chapters I felt some things needed further explanation and that is why I've chosen Reflections at the end of most chapters as a vehicle to shed light on some of the darker aspects of my life to help put a little perspective on how I feel now as to how I felt at the time. During all of this I was still haunted by the possibility that another panic attack would derail me at any time. But most of all this is a story of resilience and survival and the constant hope that things would get better which they did.
