One thing I have always been is a smartass. Male, smartass and with an anxiety disorder. Makes for a good read.
Background
Information
I have always believed in being honest. For the most part you will never have to question my position on anything. To start, I have no real background that would qualify me as a writer. What I do have is many years of experience in regards to dealing with panic disorder. It is a very private and personal experience that I share with you in my book.
I had a few things that motivated me to write this book. Making money on telling my story was at the forefront when I started but soon changed to the need to let other people know, who suffer from similar disorders, that they are not alone. One of the most common effects of being inflicted with a mental disorder is the feeling that you are the only one in the world suffering from it. This is not the case and there are millions of people in the same position and my book provides that reminder.
In the end the book proved to be therapeutic and it became the key to defeating my panic attacks. Well, almost. I will never be 100% but I'll take 99% anytime. I now look at tomorrow with hope and promise. Something I have not done since I was a child. In short, I can dream again.
