'Anxiety Stricken': New Novel and Screenplay Provides Comic Relief for Anxiety Sufferers

WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla., Oct. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Author and anxiety victim Ferf Ziamond casts the serious issue of anxiety disorders into a lighthearted, comic story of a family in a small North Carolina town in a new book written in both novel and screenplay format, "Anxiety Stricken" (now available through AuthorHouse).

In the small town of Lenoir, N.C., the narrator, his wife, Kelly, and their son, Kevvy, begin a new life miles away from the world they know. The narrator is a victim of harsh anxiety attacks, which present great dilemmas along the journey.

Young Kevvy is smitten with a new acquaintance while he must deal with threats from the school bullies. The narrator's mother-in-law comes to visit, causing large amounts of anxiety, but equally large amounts of humor at the same time. Meanwhile, the narrator learns of two others with his disorder and attempts to assist them after finding a possible cure for the awful episodes.

Ziamond seeks to bring readers "a whirlwind of fun from behind the eyes of some of the country's worst anxiety attack victims." The story comes from exaggerated notes written in the author's journal while taking a course dedicated to curing anxiety and depression. This all took place at a time of life-altering anxiety for the author.

"In 'Anxiety Stricken' we are able to laugh at our disorders while bringing them out into the open," says Ziamond. "The best cure is not hiding it from others."

Ferf Ziamond is a pen name representing a colorless, ageless, genderless storyteller who introduces a different concept to readers, says the author. Ziamond has also written "Remembering Olsen" and "Exchanging Pleasantries." Both are available through AuthorHouse.
