Didn't I get enough attention as the featured author a couple of months ago? Gosh, I just have so much to say on these subject. Jeanne and Julie, I am so mad that I was treated for anxiety and depression as a kid, and the reasons for those symptoms went unnoticed. As a social worker, I did a study on the correlation between suicide attempts and abuse. I'd like to see a study on the correlation between abuse and panic attacks. I want to say, there is hope. Today I stood in front of a congregation without any fear or anxiety. I felt as natural and calm, even calming the person next to me who was practically hyper-ventilating. I don't have your book yet, so I don't know what methods you propose for healing from panic attacks. My personal experience is that meditation and visualization are good methods. Okay, that's all for now. I don't want to be a forum hog! Love and Light, Lynn
