PANIC AWAY BY JOE BARRY REVIEW SUMMARY
1. WHAT IS THE BASIC IDEA BEHIND PANIC AWAY BY JOE BARRY?
The Panic Away system is based on the idea that Panic Attacks are fueled by simple, often small, fear reactions that get out of hand. These small fear reactions quickly and suddenly build upon each other and feed each other, resulting in an intense, abnormal fear reaction called panic. The basic concept behind the system is that if you can find some way of dealing with the initial, small, manageable, fear reactions you will have a way of preventing panic attacks. If the normal, small fear reactions can be prevented from feeding off each other, from combining in a run-away, uncontrolled manner, you would be able to stop panic attacks at will.
The Panic Away system attempts to accomplish this using a three pronged approach:
(a) a specific technique called the One Move Technique teaches you exactly what to do the moment you feel a panic attack coming on. It is supposed to interrupt your normal panic attack pattern, not allowing the small fears to build up. The author, Joe Barry, provides very specific instruction on how this technique is to be applied in different situations and for different types of panic triggers such as agoraphobia, fear of flying, fear of driving, fear of public speaking, fear of enclosed spaces, and many more.
(b) the second part of the system attempts to prevent panic attacks before they even begin. The idea here is that if you can find ways to reduce your general day to day anxiety, you will eliminate the “fuel” for panic attacks. Joe Barry provides a whole host of techniques including diet modifications, exercise, daily routines that are meant to reduce the background day to day anxiety that is the fuel for panic attacks. This section discusses many different type of day to day anxiety and situations so that the reader is able to pick out the techniques that apply to him/her specifically
(c) the third part of the system discusses at length how to maintain control over panic attacks for the long term. Learning to control panic attacks when they start, says Joe Barry, and learning to minimize the background anxiety that produces panic attack is great but if you don’t learn and develop lasting habits, you can soon find yourself back in the same place you started. This section covers many techniques specifically designed to make your new ways of thinking and acting a habit, so that you can get to the point of behaving in the right way automatically and for the long-term.

2. DOES THE SYSTEM ACTUALLY WORK?
Joe Barry states upfront that he is not a psychologist and not a doctor. He was, however, a chronic panic attack sufferer who was unable to find any lasting relief from traditional therapies (drugs, counseling). He says that after years of research and trial and error on himself and fellow panic attack sufferers he was able to devise a system that works for people over and over again.
I have used many of Joe Barry’s techniques consistently over the last 3 months to control panic. They didn’t work right away, but with just a little persistence and practice, I was able to able to reduce the frequency and severity of my panic attacks. I have also made changes in my diet and exercise regimen which I have found have helped to reduce the onset of panic.
I have found that the Panic Away system has given me a framework for understanding what happens during an attack and the many factors that lead to an attack. It has made me more aware of how an attack develops over time, and how it suddenly skyrockets into a full blown attack. Becoming more aware of all the factors at play has given me a significant amount of control that I did not have before. This doesn’t mean that I never get panic attacks. I still get them occasionally but far, far less than before and far less severe than they used to be.
Does this mean it works for everyone? Certainly not. The system ultimately depends on YOU to execute it. All the information in the world isn’t going to change a thing unless you ACT on it. This sounds obvious, but there are many panic attack sufferers who purchase books and programs but never actually act on the information, in the way the author suggests.
The principles in the system based on science and good common sense. The techniques are easy to understand and clearly laid out. Whether or not it works for you depends how ready you are take action and how consistent you are in the developing the new habits.
3. ARE THE RESULTS LONGTERM?
The results can be long term if you are committed to developing new habits (some changes in the way you eat, the way you exercise, and how you think about panic attacks in general). The changes are not complicated and are not hard to make, but you do have to be consistent. If you think and act the right way repeatedly, eventually it will become a habit.

4. PANIC AWAY BY JOE BARRY IS NOT FOR EVERYONE
First and foremost, if your panic attacks are severe to the point where you are consistently taking medication, you do not want to stop taking the medication without discussing it with your doctor. Suddenly stopping a medication can have very bad effects. In this case it is best if you let your doctor know that you will be trying a natural therapy and see if he/she wants to reduce your medication dosing.
Second, it is important to keep in mind that this system cannot take the place of a human counselor. The system is easy to understand and use, but some people need one-on-one interaction and coaching from a real person. If you are the type of person who needs a live coach or counselor to guide you, then professional counseling is probably a better choice.

8. PANIC AWAY REVIEW SUMMARY
Panic Away is a comprehensive program to designed to help you control and prevent panic attacks. It has helped thousands of people.
It is important that you do not expect a miracle – don’t expect everything to work the first time you use it and don’t expect it to eliminate all you panic attacks in 2 days. A long standing problem such as Panic takes time to heal. It takes time and persistence to develop new ways of thinking and new habits. The work is not complicated or difficult, but it does take consistent effort over time.
