Welcome to My Panic Attacks - Adam K. Elliot

Rating - PG

IF you suffer from panic attacks, or if you care about someone who suffers from them, you need to read this book. Panic attacks can destroy one's life. I know, because it destroyed mine for many years. My life was a succession of doctors, both competent and incompetent. The incompetent ones didn't recognize that my panic attacks were real and not just a figment of my imagination or an extreme form of hypochondria.
THE challenge is that not many people know about panic attacks! Add to the mix a dysfunctional family, a crazy boss, a vengeful ex-wife, a tumor in the head, and a litany of drugs, and you'll have an idea of the journey you'll be taking with me as you read about my struggles. But the good news is that there is life and light at the end of the tunnel.
IN my new memoir, you will experience my pain, but you will come to know that laughter and happiness can arise from the depths of misery. More importantly, it is my hope that the story I tell within the pages of this book will be a clarion call to doctors throughout the world that they need to listen to their patients, that panic attacks are real, and that they can destroy lives. It only takes one wise doctor with an open mind to end one person's nightmare of having to live with the daily specter of panic attacks; the terror that is ready to pounce unannounced and when least expected.
IT is my sincerest wish that my personal story will bring peace to those whose lives have become a cycle of fear and depression. My treatment for panic attacks were challenging to endure, but I hope that I have shared my story in a way that not only helps my fellow sufferers relate, but loved ones as well. You don't need to suffer needlessly year after year as I did.
THERE are doctors and medications that can and will end the destructive power of panic attacks. It happened for me, and it will happen for you. In this book you will discover how I learned to deal with my panic. You will learn about the different panic attack treatment protocols given to me by the many doctors who simply did not understand what was going on inside of me. It is my hope that this book will help other men who have lost parts of their life because of the scourge of panic attacks!
The Illegal Gardener - Sara Alexi

Rating - PG

Driven by a need for some control in her life, Juliet sells up on impulse and buys a dilapidated farmhouse in a tiny Greek village, leaving her English life behind.
The house is livable by local standards, but the job of restoring the garden is too big. It requires strength. Juliet cannot bring it to life on her own.
Around the olive tree, hidden beneath the covering of bindweeds, are mattresses, broken chairs, shepherds' crooks, and old goat bells, the remains of past lives intertwined in a slow decay. The beauty of the garden is lost with the years of neglect and no one to appreciate it.
Juliet reluctantly enlists casual labour. She has no desire to share her world with anyone. The boys have grown, Mick has gone. This is her time now.
Aaman has travelled to Greece from Pakistan illegally. His task is to find work and raise money for the harvester his village desperately needs to deliver them out of poverty. Poverty that is sending the younger generation to the cities, dividing families, and slowly destroying his community.
What he imagined would be a heroic journey in reality is fraught with danger and corruption. He finds himself in Greece and follows the work, a little here, a little there. As time passes, he loses his sense of self. He is now an immigrant worker, illegal, displaced, unwanted, with no value. Some days he does not have enough money to feed himself, let alone to return home to Pakistan.
In the village square, he waits for work, dawn not even broken.
Juliet hires Aaman.
Neither is entirely comfortable with their role. Juliet the Westerner, who has money and a valid passport, resents the intrusion even though she wants her garden cleared. Aaman needs the work and money but resents the humiliation.
As the summer progresses, even though they are from vastly different backgrounds, cultures apart, they discover they have something in common, an event that has defined how they interact and even how they view themselves. Pieces of their lives they have kept hidden even from themselves are exposed. They are each other's catalysts to facing their own ghosts...
