Panic Away is a scam.

Panic Away sucks.

Will you get swindled?

I hate Panic Away – Learn the shocking truth!

These types of ads hinting at the potential scam that Panic Away represents are appearing with alarming regularity. A quick examination of those ads reveals no such scam. Rather, you will learn that Panic Away isn't a scam at all. In fact, it's a very effective product that was developed by a responsible merchant who knows your pain.

In actuality, those ads themselves are scams. They are designed merely to direct your attention to sites with no such proof.

Welcome to the new era of advertising.

He who cries wolf…

The unfortunate thing about this type of advertising is that people will become numbed to such deception. Remember the boy who cried wolf? He was ignored when he finally was confronted by a real wolf. Likewise, people will learn to ignore these ads too, which can include those with valid warnings. The alarm, new breakthrough or a helpful resource will be missed.

Because of such deceptive advertising, your recovery can be delayed unnecessarily.

Let's get real. It's time for the truth.

Panic Away does get some legitimate criticisms from actual users, which might have some basis for this type of advertising. The best feedback you can get about Panic Away can be found on anxiety-related forums and by reading the posts.

Don't rely solely on the testimonials on Panic Away's site, even though they most likely are quite valid. By the way, it's illegal for them not to be real testimonials made by real people.

Overall, the positive feedback about Panic Away seems to outweigh the negative ones. As with all treatment programs, Panic Away might or might not work for you. It's true. A lot has to do with your persistence and determination in using the product. If the methods given are not followed exactly as instructed, it's very likely you will not get the desired results.

As well, if you give up on the techniques too soon, you might think they don't work. As much as you'd like your anxiety to be gone yesterday, it will take time just like it takes time for a cut to heal. Some patience is required. Anxiety disorder takes time to develop and it will take time to recover.

Then there are some people, especially those who have let their anxiety control them for awhile, who require external help that is provided by talk therapists. In some cases anxiety-relieving drug therapy might be prescribed to help you through the difficult symptoms.

It's important to note that anti-anxiety drugs do not cure anxiety, they only relieve the symptoms of high tension, stress and irrational thinking so that other more permanent treatments can work.

This preliminary work prepares you for the methods that Panic Away offers.

Underlying Problems Can Delay Recovery

Consider too that some people have underlying issues that cannot be treated by Panic Away alone.

For instance, a person with underlying emotional and mental health problems might benefit little, or not at all, from Panic Away or any other self-help program. When those pre-existing conditions are resolved, however, Panic Away might well be the final solution to ridding you of panic and anxiety forever.

It's a known fact that a sense of inferiority is at the root of anxiety disorder, even though many sufferers reject this idea. The best way to find out if you feel inferior is to take a close look at how you compare yourself to others in certain situations.

This can be difficult at first but with practice, you will soon be able to grasp those little voices inside you that put you below others. For example, if you are facing a stressful activity you will hear doubts inside your head whispering negative messages about your abilities, how you will fail, and how nervous you will feel and that so-and-so wouldn't have a problem with this task.

Our minds are tricksters. They will bury our real thoughts, feelings and fears, and cause us to use our fear of having an anxiety attack to explain our reluctance to undertake those stressful activities.

Feeling inferior is also directly related to low self esteem. People who feel inferior and have low self esteem will doubt their capabilities and potential. They constantly feel inadequate about themselves in some way, whether it's intellectually, in how they look physically, in their level of education and knowledge, in their social skills, in their abilities to achieve their goals.

Or they might dread failing in something that induced severe anxiety in the past.

For some people, the anxiety cure itself will automatically improve their self-esteem and self-confidence. This is understandable because the fear will be removed, leaving plenty of room for overall improvement.

For others, however, more help is needed.

It's a horrid way to live. I know, because I lived that life for about 40 years. Over time, these existing conditions triggered anxiety disorder. So you can believe me when I tell you that you don't have to live that way.

You can break away from those inferior feelings, low self esteem and lack of confidence. People do every day. I'm one of them, so I know it's a very real and achievable goal.

If you have these underlying conditions, believe that you can recover fully and live a happier more fulfilling life.

I've written a book based on my own success in recovering from low self esteem and lack of confidence as it related to my anxiety disorder. Available with Panic Away, it takes your recovery to the next step by teaching you how to build your confidence and ultimately stop your anxiety.

What a very silly reply. Most things in this world are not free. Do you work for FREE for your employer. Do you walk into a grocery store and walk out with FREE food without paying? How would you eat and survive without earning a living? obviously the authors who put this courses together need to earn a living to eat and survive? why give the course away for FREE. Calling people of these courses scammers, just goes to show how negative you are. Either pay up, or continue to suffer. The choice is yours.

Stop being businessmen and don't ask money for providing help! If you really have been through that, share you knowledge and save other sufferers

What do you do for a living? Do you get paid to teach? Do you make money building houses for people? Do you sell children's clothes? Shame on you... you should give away the clothes and the food... you should provide places for people to live for free... Why shouldn't people make money from their knowledge, experience or wisdom? If they can earn a living by helping others then they can do it full time and help more people... think about it...

"What do you do for a living? Do you get paid to teach? Do you make
money building houses for people? Do you sell children's clothes? Shame on you... you should give away the clothes and the food..." You've have done what most people in the business of selling information do. You have tried to associate in people's minds physical labour, and the manufacturing and distribution of material objects with the activity of digital reproduction, which has no per unit labour costs, no manufacturering costs, and negligible distribution costs. You cannot compare building a house, or giving away food, with pressing the publish button on your computer.

Providing information requires more than a click of the mouse. It takes time to conduct the research, plus talent and education (at a cost) to know how to put it all together. It takes time to distribute the articles so you can read them. While I don't buy building materials, I do have to pay to maintain my equipment (computer, internet services) so I can make my knowledge available to you. Even though some things are free, like information, it does cost to gather it, rewrite it, and distribute it. That's why the only free information you'll find is in the articles that you can read here and other sites. I save you the time and frustration of trying to find the information yourself. Of course, you're welcome to go searching for the material if you don't wish to pay for it. Or you can pay writers like me for their expertise, time, effort and costs to do it for you.

I bought this program from the official site, and then requested the $67 back.  They refunded me within 3 days.  HOWEVER, I asked for the refund because I thought I found another, better program.  Well, looking back on it, I think the PanicAway is the better program and I'm going to try to follow through with it.  If I still like it, I'm going to go ahead and buy it again to make sure they get paid, because if it does work, I will be SO HAPPY!!!  As I'm sure anyone else with this condition would be!!!!! 
Best of luck, Sarah

Prior to discovering PanicAway, I suffered severe attacks on a regular basis. Long after my recovery, I reviewed PanicAway so I could share this and other resources with other people going through the same torment I did for 5 years or more.
 
What I discovered was a little surprising, because it contains the exact method I used to stop my panic once and for all. Yes, it works. But I think it is far more likely to work when you reach the point you are almost angry and the anger gives you the power and determination to do what's necessary to escape anxiety's grasp. Until you reach that stage, you are too fearful of the condition to believe that recovery is truly possible. Fortunately, anger drives fear away.
 
I'm glad my article has helped you.
 
All my best,
 
Sylvia

Panic Away is based around one device, the rest is just waffle you can find on any anxiety website. The device is one that is common knowledge across the internet and in many self help books. It was first described by Claire Weekes in the 1970's and is basically 'ride the panic'. Face your fear tactics aren't productive and certainly don't produce a curative affect. Most sufferers know about this device already, it's on many, many websites, but it is not a cure for panic attacks and certainly not anxiety disorders. I haven't used The Linden Method o I can't comment about its similarity to his CD. Panic Away is just a rewrite of old info and is therefore pretty worthless. Save your money folks.

I know Joe Barry, he used The Linden Method to treat his own anxiety and learned a lot from their counselors and the program. He took this knowledge and created his own product from it, which I find deplorable. The Linden Method is the original product though and far better than Panic Away. I have used both and can't believe that anyone would find the Panic Away program useful... it is empty and ridiculous. I am a counselor and have used The Linden Method personally and in practice, Panic Away is poor in comparison.

Since Panic Away and The Linden Method are two of the top selling products to cure anxiety, it's obvious that they both work. I have looked over these products and see the benefits of both. I have to agree with you that the Linden Method is far more comprehensive than Panic Away. I especially like the fact that he has included CDs, the manual AND ongoing email and phone counselling for an entire year as part of his package. I review The Linden Method in comparison to Panic Away on my site.

Interesting that anonymous should say that Panic Away and The Linden Method are similar. I too bought both and Panic Away's core principals are a copy of The Linden Method's Panic Attack Eliminator CD. Charles Linden presents his audio file as a self help exercise, but not as the core of his program. Joe Barry has expanded this one idea and craeted a program around it. Ridiculous. If The Linden Method is 100%, Panic Away is 2%. It's a ridiculous waste of money, you are correct!

Panic Away / Anxiety Release Method by Joe Barry V The Linden Method by Charles Linden
 
We have now had a fair opportunity to review Panic Away, The Anxiety Release Method and The Linden Method to understand what it is EmmaB discovered about Panic Away / The Anxiety Release Method which sounded alarm bells for her. We have also gone through all of Joe Barry's web pages and we've discovered quite a lot. We wanted to be as fair as possible so we asked 4 people to review the material first of all in order to guage their opinions. This is what they discovered.
 
1. Panic Away & The Anxiety Release Method's One Move Technique
 
What is most interesting is that listening to Charles Linden's Panic Eliminator CD which is included in The Linden Method pack and then listening to Joe Barry's One Move technique, from his Panic Away and Anxiety Release Method programs, did result in the 4 people who reviewed them both independently, coming to the conclusions that the process described by Joe Barry is substantially similar to the one Charles Linden describes in his Panic Eliminator CD.
 
2. Panic Away / The Anxiety Release Method Webpages
 
We then searched through both Joe Barry's and Charles Linden's web pages. We discovered that The Linden Method's online presence pre-dates Joe Barry's Panic Away pages and we were surprised to find a large quantity of material on the Linden Method webpages also on Panic Away Webpages... in some cases, word for word. (e.g. Medications pages).
 
3. Duplicate content on websites and in manual
 
Just an observation. We were also surprised to find that a substantial amount of online content provided by Joe Barry on Panic away and Anxiety Release Method webpages was to be found as the content of his programs Panic Away & Anxiety Release Method. Padding?
 
4. Presence of same material in Panic Away & Anxiety Release Method and The Linden Method
 
What troubled us mostly, however, was the presence of material in Joe Barry's Panic away and Anxiety Release Method manuals which is identical to that in Charles Linden's manual. An example of this would be the description of Globus Hystericus in both manuals which is identical.
 
Conclusions?
 
Make your own conclusions please.
 
The Linden Method was first published in 1997.
 
Joe Barry's publishing date is not clear, but was substantially later than that date... on his website he currently states that he has been online for seven years (so 2002?).

Just do a google search on this: panic away linden method unbiased
 
It's the 1st website, the title of the website is: "Panic Away vs Linden Method - which one is better?"
 
It provides full details and unbiased comparison of the Linden Method and Panic Away programs.

That's utter rubbish. That site is run by an affiliate who will PUSH people towards whatever makes him most commission. The information that site provides is also inaccurate and misleading. The Linden Method rocks! Don't trust me though, google 'linden method proof' and click on the 1st stopworry link - it's pretty conclusive if you ask me! Joe Barry is just some ebook writer... Charles' credentials, staff, experience are 1000 times more than Barry's. See for yourself!

Both Charles Linden and Panic Away have many testimonial, no matter which you go for, I personally think they'll work.
 
Panic Away priced more reasonably while the linden method is a bit too much...
 
There are many debate on which is the "best", and I think the "best" is only good when it is effective against your problem. No single method can cure all people problems...
