Philip English Quick Facts

After suffering anxiety and panic attacks right through my teens and well into my twenties, although born in Australia, I was living in New York at the time, making my living as a television actor, when I was cast in the lead role of my first major stage production.

Up until then I’d been self medicating when the pressures became too much, using alcohol and prescription drugs to alleviate my insecurities. But having to go on stage in front of a live audience every night? That’s when I knew it was time to face up to the fact that I had a serious disorder.

After visiting several medical professionals and talking to a few people suffering from the same disorder, I was surprised to find out how widespread anxiety and panic disorders where – especially amongst young children. 

Able to put a name to my condition now, I followed the advice of the medical professionals and began taking prescribed medication. Thankfully this enabled me to go on stage in front of the live audience on opening night.. and to continue doing so every night after for the full run of the play.

But unfortunately, over time the side effects of the medication started to catch up with me, lowering my spontaneity until eventually I began feeling cut off from my deeper emotions – deadly for a working actor.

After the play, more determined than ever, I continued with my research until finally I did find a treatment, a natural treatment that, within weeks, without having to resort to medication, freed me of my anxiety.. and of all the insecurities that had been haunting me since early childhood. 

Having spent many years now anxiety free, I created this website with the hope of helping parents to understand the underlying workings of anxiety and panic disorders, and also, to alert them to a treatment available today that (with their loving guidance and support) could rid their youngsters of their anxiety disorder naturally.. and lead them back to a healthy and happy anxiety free life..
