You may recognise this woman

Oh sh!t.
She's talking about me.

She can look completely normal while internally planning three escape routes. She chooses the supermarket queue based on how trapped it might make her feel, and one strange sensation can lead to an unexpected postgraduate qualification in Google medicine.

The woman behind the panic

Written from the middle of it.

Adele Clark is a creative ecommerce developer based in the Peak District. She spent much of her post-university life in Seattle, USA. She wrote this book at 45 and very much not from the finish line, drawing on her experience of anxiety, panic, OCD-like rituals, health anxiety and periods of agoraphobia across different stages of her life.
