[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "The Irrational Fear Cure" by Teri Smith-Pickens.]

Do you suffer from addictions, mood instability, sleep issues, perceptual disturbances which manifest in ways most people would consider outright weird, phobias, subjective morality, health issues, etcetera? This book would be a good starting point in your recovery process, and I strongly recommend it to you. However, the book may be better suited to open-minded readers, as the text suggests that Christianity is the “true” religion.

According to the author, we all live in survival mode brought over by the irrational fears experienced during childhood, where we use obsessive-compulsive behaviors to fill a void on the inside. What are obsessive-compulsive behaviors? What are irrational fears? What are the downsides of living in survival mode? What are the author’s four steps to overcoming irrational fears? Find answers to the questions and more in this nonfiction faith-based book called The Irrational Fear Cure: In Four Miraculous Steps by Teri Smith-Pickens.

I can’t think of anything to dislike in this publication. I gladly rate it 4 out of 4 stars. The reasons for my rating are glaring from the first page to the last, and I’ll explain them. First, the colorful pictures that were included at the start of each chapter were not only refreshing to see, but they also prepared my mind for what was to come. For example, the first chapter shows a girl wrapping herself in fear inside a closed jar, with a spider outside the jar. Only one thing came to my mind when I saw that picture, and I’m sure readers would think the same.

Additionally, I appreciated the stories that the author included at various points in the story that provided practical examples about what she previously explained. These stories were particularly pleasing when the writer explained the major obsessive-compulsive behaviors. For example, readers would see how a woman called Chelsea became in severe debt even when she had a high-paying job and a successful partner because of her obsessive-compulsive behavior. Readers would also see how a young engineer that graduated from a prestigious university lost the trust of his family and friends on account of his obsessive-compulsive behavior.

The references that are provided at the end of the book are also nice to see. Several statistical pieces of information were provided throughout the text, so it was nice to see that the author provided the source of her information for readers who like to research further. The references added another layer of credibility to the information in the book. The editing of the book seems professional since I didn’t find too many errors. The tone of the message was conversational, and I enjoyed reading the story of the author’s struggles and how she overcame them. The author’s story made me even more attached to her and more receptive to the message.

I would love to read the book, it seems like a true guide that could help someone. I am critical of it being mainly focused for Christians, but a little open mindedness can't hurt. Thanks for the review.

The book is not for me if it is suggesting that Christianity is the true religion. I can see where the book can be useful to readers either agreeing with the statement or not bothered by it. Irrational fears can be a part of everyone's life, and tips and examples on how to overcome them, described in 4 steps, are welcome.

The reviewer has nicely summarised book. This self help book which leans towards faith as its guide, lays before the reader many possible causes, including physiological and spiritual, of anxiety, etc. the first few pages create an already helpful ambience.
