My path out of anxiety disorder

I was gripped by anxiety and panic attacks since my early teens, but didn't realize it until my mid-40s. Once I hit bottom in my relationships, and had to face the facts, I turned to Dr. Townsend's book and found the answer. My early childhood trauma had imprisoned me in a childish emotion that I had to overcome.

He not only helps you recognize where and how this can grow from early childhood, but describes specific steps to healing, including the spiritual aspects as well as how to recognize old habits that built up as a defense against the pain.

I highly recommend this to anyone that had a wrenching early childhood experience (i.e. alcoholic parents, abandonment or abuse)and wants to begin to live life in close relationships rather than loneliness, shame and guilt.

Townsend helps readers thoroughly identify and explore the hiding patterns they've developed, often to protect themselves from unhealthy situations experienced during childhood. With keen biblical insight, he shows how Christians can set healthy boundaries, learn not to fear exposure or failure, and find the healing grace and truth that God provides.
