Book Description: The latest entry in the practical and informative series Understanding Health and Sickness clearly conveys patient's and physician's feelings about its subjects. The general public often attaches a stigma to persons suffering mental disorders. This can make individual patients' lives much more difficult, since they are likely to question themselves as well as the disorder. Root explains physical and mental problems that can mimic panic disorders and that the differentiating diagnosis in emergency room or clinic is often a major hurdle. The unpredictable nature of attacks in panic disorders and their frequent accompaniment, agoraphobia (fear of crowds or going into society), add to the anxiety involved. Root describes those likely to suffer from panic attacks, discusses drug and psychotherapy treatments, and includes a chapter on pertinent research projects now under way.
