The Twelve Steps of Phobics Anonymous (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997208573)

For many people, chronic worry, psychological stress, self-defeating fears, acute anxiety, and overwhelming panic are constant unseen yet powerful companions doggedly following each and every step we take, cutting into life and squeezing the joy out of living. Daily normal routines are no longer fulfilling for some, lack luster for most, and become impossible for others.

FEAR is the Four-letter word which touches every aspect of our lives - an evil and corroding thread woven through the fabric of our existence. It is not the private domain of the weak. It strikes the mighty and powerful as well, enslaving us by making us prisoners. Condemned by our catastrophic negative thoughts, we become physically, emotionally, and spiritually bankrupt. We give it the power to slap handcuffs and shackles on our lives. Many of us become victims of frustration, despair, depression or hopelessness, and sometimes suicidal. Our perspective of life becomes warped. Like a virus which begins with one fearful experience or situation, it spreads and infects all other areas of our lives which, in themselves, are completely removed from any damage that can act as a trigger.
