  A self-help book by the author of Coping with Anxiety and Depression . Panic attacks have always existed, but only recently have doctors and specialists begun to diagnose them correctly and address the problem. This book covers physical causes, such as low blood-sugar, and also psychological triggers. It also aims to clear up misunderstandings - sufferers often think something serious is happening, such as a heart attack, and feel that doctors are not taking it seriously. The causes of hyperventilation and how it affects the body and the nervous system is looked at, and also triggering allergies, food intolerance and chronic pain. The book advises about how to acknowledge the source of symptoms, re-train breathing and get to the roots of the problem.
