good but nothing new
this book is good but I felt as though I was just reading parts of other books I have already read on the subject. It was lacking in the personal touch some of the other books have had. I would have liked more info on the authors history in dealing with the problem. We merely are told that she did it without any personal accounts. Granted the info in the book can help you, though it is kind of light in content, but if I had to recommend just one book to a panic disorder sufferer, this may not be the one.

Unique Perspective
So far, I've read the book three times, gleaning more from it each time. Panic Free is an easy read. It addresses a very complex subject simply, yet comprehensively, and I'm happy to report that Dr. Freeman isn't "selling" any particular treatment or "easy fix".
The author's unique perspective as both a clinician AND a patient provides remarkable, yet practical, insights into dealing with panic/anxiety attacks, regardless of source.
Since I'm reluctant to lend my copy of the book to others for fear it might disappear, I plan to purchase several more copies to give to select friends. This is a very valuable book.

Great Find
This is a really good book. From reading it I found out that a lot of my anxiety was caused by a vitamin depletion (anemia and vitamin B complex deficiency). I quickly found out how to "cure" my problem with supplements and I no longer have had any attacks since.Anyone with anxiety should read this book because the author is very thorough, she lists all the reasons that could be causing anxiety, from health related problems (as I mentioned) to real mental health problems, or a combination of both. This book also helped me in dealing with my panic when I'd feel like I was going to "die." I realised it wasn't all in my head.
