September 11 forever changed the way we view the world — affecting how we go about our day-to-day — formerly routine — activities. September 11 was the day phobias turned into reality; anxiety turned into panic; and the only sure thing was uncertainty.

"When will the other shoe drop?" is on everyone's minds, if not their lips.Internationally renowned psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Harriet Braiker has identified a new kind of stress bred of this uncertainty: The September 11 Syndrome. Symptoms include: persistent anxiety and worry, sleep disruption, lingering low-grade depression, avoidance of fear-provoking activities or places, increased irritability and a general feeling of loss of control and helplessness, all triggered by the events of that tragic day and its aftermath.The September 11 Syndrome addresses these symptoms and offers seven practical ways for getting a grip and regaining a sense of control in these very uncertain times.
