Summary: Fantastic Book!
Comment: I saw Dr. Braiker on the TODAY Show and I felt like she was talking to me -- and her wise words were just what I needed. The subtitle of her book is "Anxious Days and Sleepless Nights" and that is me all over! I've been feeling anxious and edgy ever since Sept. 11, but was afraid to talk about it because I figured we were all supposed to shut up and go on with our lives. That was a mistake. Dr. Braiker appeared on the show the day AFTER the one year anniversary and said, quite simply, "The anxiety is still with us...and will be for some time. And anybody who thought the anxiety would stop at the end of the anniversary woke up today and realized it's not that easy." That's me to a "T." Her 7 steps are solid techniques for getting a grip and I'm already using them. AND THEY REALLY WORK!! I also really like the fact that she's donating some of the proceeds from her book to World Trade Center-related charities and her website ... lists them.

Summary: Realistic, practical, and reassuring
Comment: The name of this book is misleading because Dr. Braiker's work is applicable to wide range of fear-based problems. As a psychotherapist and author who specializes in helping clients and readers face and overcome fear's control, I find the specific techniques (tools) extremely useful.
The book is well organized and easy to read, which is essential if readers who are (by definition) anxious are going to get the most out of it. Dr. Braiker introduces her methodology by moving through 7 practical steps that build on one another, guiding readers toward an understanding of personal courage that is quite simple, but well beyond how we usually think of courage.
The reassurance in this book is intelligent and credible. It is well worth reading, and telling anyone you know who remains anxious in our post September 11 world.
- Thom Rutledge, author of Embracing Fear (HarperSanFrancisco)

Summary: This Book is a True Lifesaver!
Comment: I saw Dr. Braiker on TV and immediately rushed out to buy this book. I have been suffering from anxious days and sleepless nights since September 11 and didn't know what to do about it. I thought I was the only one. And every time there is another terrorist warning I don't know what to do or how to cope. I don't usually buy these types of books, but this one is a true lifesaver. The government says there will be another attack -- not if, but when! That scares the hell out of me. But this book gives me hope and some control over my fears.
