About this listen
Do you toss and turn at night with a knot in your stomach, worrying about your job, your family, work, your health, or relationships? Do you suffer from crippling shyness, obsessive doubts, or feelings of insecurity? Are you plagued by fears, phobias, or panic attacks?
What you may not realize is that these fears are almost never based on reality. Anxiety is one of the world's oldest cons. When you're anxious, you're actually fooling yourself. You are telling yourself things that simply aren't true. See if you can recognize yourself in any of these distortions:
- All-or-Nothing Thinking: "My mind will go blank when I give my presentation at work, and everyone will think I'm an idiot."
- Fortune Telling: "I just know I'll freeze up and blow it when I take my test."
- Mind Reading: "Everyone at this party can see how nervous I am."
- Magnification: "Flying is so dangerous. I think this plane is going to crash!"
- Should Statements: "I shouldn't be so anxious and insecure. Other people don't feel this way."
- Emotional Reasoning: "I feel like I'm on the verge of cracking up!"
- Self-Blame: "What's wrong with me? I'm such a loser!"
- Mental Filter: "Why can't I get anything done? My life seems like one long procrastination."
Now imagine what it would be like to live a life that's free of worries and self-doubt; to go to sleep at night feeling peaceful and relaxed; to overcome your shyness and have fun with other people; to give dynamic presentations without worrying yourself sick ahead of time; to enjoy greater creativity, productivity and self-confidence.
Does that sound impossible? The truth is you can defeat your fears.
In When Panic Attacks, Dr. Burns takes you by the hand and shows you how to overcome every conceivable kind of anxiety. In fact you will learn how to use more than 40 simple, effective techniques, and the moment you put the lie to the distorted thoughts that plague you, your fears will immediately disappear. Dr. Burns also shares the latest research on the drugs commonly prescribed for anxiety and depression and explains why they may sometimes do more harm than good.
This is not pop psychology but proven, fast-acting techniques that have been shown to be more effective than medications. When Panic Attacks is an indispensable handbook for anyone who's worried sick and sick of worrying.

The Bible to combating anxiety and depression.
Listening to "Feeling Good" and this book has cemented my upmost respect for Dr Burns.
I believe that in general, self help books with their fake confidence inducing strategies, "how to be happy" podcasts and books, and any extrinsic motivational sources are all bound to be cause temporary relief since they do not address the root causes of the issues and tend to be specific to problems.
This however, is not a self help book. This is therapy. This book gives you actual tools that attack at the roots to combat your current and future anxiety and depression problems. Listening to this book also helps puts into perspective that you are not alone in your depression and or anxiety struggles, and that people have and have had it way worse.
One would imagine that it would be a bore and chore to listen through a book about Therapy, but Dr Burns has written it beautifully, and the book even consists of a lot of funny moments that made me laugh out loud, allowing me to go through it with a breeze. The narration is also lovely, and very calming to listen to.
I'll be referring back to these books for the rest of my life.
Thank you Dr. Burns

Excellent insight
24 years of suffering from panic disorder and generalized anxiety disorder I personally found this book to be the best I’ve read to date. A lot of excellent insight, tools and resources (of course we have to do the exercises in the book to reap full benefit). Definitely pleased I came across this book.

A great read for anyone, and not just those with anxiety challenges and depression
From my hubby, who had (past tense) somewhat severe anxiety and OCD…
This is a really well written and organized book. It is perhaps the best CBT book I have read to date. It is especially important to actually do the worksheets to realize the benefits of the book. I would agree with its author that the book can be used on its own, with great success, but that it can be combined with the help a qualified therapist for those who need a little extra guidance or feel better with a skilled guide.
Even people who do not have clinically diagnosed anxiety issues, or depression, will likely benefit from the practices detailed in this book — since most people experience some levels of anxiety or mood challenges from time to time.
I highly recommend this book.
