"I will be forever grateful to Paul McKenna for giving me the confidence to get my life back!"

My name is Louise Clack and I am 36 years old, currently working in a Sales Customer Support role.

When I was 19 I had not long started a new job working for a local newspaper as an Editorial Assistant, a job I was absolutely loving. Being young and excited I would often be running around all over the place and not really eating much - consequently, this led to me having a dizzy spell when I was out running errands in the town. From that moment on I became convinced that everytime I would go out I would feel dizzy, I became obsessed about fainting or being sick until eventually, I couldn’t go out anymore through fear.

My anxiety was so bad that I had to be driven to and from work as I became too nervous to drive and during the day I was too afraid to leave the office.

My social life was non-existent and I couldn’t even go to the shops anymore. Just functioning enough to hold down my job became exhausting.

Eventually, I decided enough was enough and I started looking online at self-help books.

I had always liked Paul McKenna and had heard great things about his techniques so I took a chance and purchased the ‘Instant Confidence’ book with CD.

After a few days of reading the book and listening to the CD I started to feel a little better, less anxious and I began to have the confidence to set myself little tasks - like at lunchtime at work I would walk across the road to the paper shop, do that for a few days and then try going a little further, etc, etc.

Eventually, I found myself enjoying shopping again, I even started going to the cinema and cafes for coffee on my own, which I would never have been able to do. I bought myself a nice convertible car too!

I can honestly say that this book changed my life, I have recommended it to so many of my friends and family when they have been struggling.

Even to this day if I start to have any of that anxiety creeping back in I revert back to this book and the techniques.

Without this, I don’t know what I would have done. I will be forever grateful to Paul McKenna for giving me the confidence to get my life back!

I will never be able to thank him enough for the help that the book has and continues to give to me. Thank you!
