We’ve all seen it, so many so-called therapists peddling their cures for social anxiety disorder. Yet what are the chances of a real cure? Downloading file after file of expensive miracle cures adds to the cloak of mystery shrouding what in fairness is just some means to extract money from you. Oh hang on, what about all those free bonuses that come with this instant tranquillity… they are all packages designed to whet your appetite, but in reality they are all bulking agents to make you feel you have got something for your money.
All of these packages are in essence designed to tempt you to give them a try. They pitch to you that they too suffered from the same disorder and miraculously discovered through trial and error the very fix you desire. And from thereon in you’re hooked! In all fairness, most of the stuff you are downloading is little more than wasteful bulk, giving you the impression you have something for your money!
The unfairness of it all is that the products or product you have just purchased turn out to be, at best, an ideal bulking agent for clogging up your PC or something just to listen to when you have a few spare hours through your hurried day. I’m sure you get the idea now.
Former therapist and now global best-selling writer Stephen Richards adds comment by saying, “Most of these products on offer to cure social anxiety are nothing more than ’snake oil’ pitches, just made to entice the weak willed and unwary into buying useless products. These goods do little more than mask the problem for a short while, not targeting the actual areas in the mind that are in need of retraining. Basically it is all a waste of money.”
Over the years the social phobia therapy business has pulled in big bucks by taking advantage of the instability of those seeking treatment. To start undoing the onset of where these panic attacks started from first requires a modicum of acknowledgment that you have a problem and then being prepared to tackle it head on, and in a direct way.
How on earth can you get through all those CDs supplied for one treatment, then there are what seems like reams of paperwork accompanying it, well that is if you decide to print it all out from your download. Oh, and they throw in more than the value of the product you have just bought as a sweetener! Then you have some testimonies from so-called past anxiety sufferers. You are supposed to get through all of this paraphernalia you are now in possession of on your own, and then go out and put it into action. The lists of cures these products are supposed to clear (all tied in with panic attacks) are: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Agoraphobia, Self Harming, etc, etc!
In the way these ‘cure all’ products are pushed at you and in such quantity it is no wonder the amount of panic attacks is on the increase. By virtue of the amount of products out there it is easy to be caught up into thinking that it is a fashion to actually have such a disorder.
Many of these products use subliminal messaging, where the words are embedded in the music or background sounds, these are wasteful of your time. Subliminal messages should not scare you. Scientific studies have proven that if the subconscious mind is intentionally programmed with positive thoughts that soon the conscious mind will begin to act with the information and positive results will be obtained. But why make it so difficult to take in?
What if there was something that actually worked better than subliminal messaging? What if it were self-hypnosis? Well that may work to bolster up your confidence levels when you are alone, but just try that in a social anxiety setting! See what happens, or rather what does not happen.
In a pioneering method developed by self-help guru Stephen Richards, audio technology is used on one of two tracks on an audio CD. There is no hypnosis or subliminal messaging. Basically, after listening for 20 minutes to the second track you get the most advanced cure for social anxiety phobia to date. That is how simple it is, and it does not give a veneer to the problem, it works deep within your subconscious mind in a very pleasing and harmless way.
During therapy sessions with private clients Stephen Richards has had massive breakthroughs when it comes to helping others overcome panic attacks. He developed a system that would do away with expensive and wasteful downloads. Downloads that were and are very costly. He has done away with any form of hypnosis whatsoever. His “Releasing You From You From Social Anxiety CD” uses technology which targets the exact area in need of help.
Stephen Richards has developed a method to help overcome social anxiety disorder that is so simple. Just one 20 minute session can do what others claim to do in tens of hours. One other criterion he stipulated was that it had to be inexpensive so that anyone could afford it. After working on this project and fine tuning it, Stephen Richards was happy to proceed to the stage of where it became available to the public for less than the cost of a film DVD.
What others claim to do as a fast fix is now actually a reality. What other methods take hours to achieve is achieved on the “Releasing You From Social Anxiety CD” in just 20 minutes (track 2). Oh, and in challenging all of these other products on price, Stephen Richards wanted it to be affordable to everybody, without any hard sales pitch or starting off at a high price and working its way down. “This,” says Stephen, “is something I want anyone to be able to have, and I am not prepared to go down the road what others have.”
“The way that some social anxiety treatments are dispensed by ruthless sellers is exploitation of those desperate for help. It is chaotic that anyone without a background in therapy can just put these things together, and they are then taken on trust that the product is ‘good to go’. It is obvious to me that there is a clear objective to why they do this. It is not with the sufferer of social anxiety in mind, that is for sure. I believe in a low-cost, but professional, fix,” says Stephen Richards.
