Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you suffer from panic, anxiety, and fear in your day-to-day life? Do you often avoid social situations, activities like driving, or even going to the store because of a fear of being overwhelmed or triggering a panic attack? You might be interested to know that anxiety disorders are the most common mental health disorders in the United States. In Anxiety and Avoidance, psychologist and anxiety disorder expert Michael Tompkins presents a universal protocol to help you cope with anxiety, panic, and fear, regardless of your particular mental health diagnosis. This universal protocol is based on David H. Barlow's "unified protocol," and is a cognitive behavioral approach. Tompkins also draws on mindfulness-based therapies such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) that have been used successfully in the treatment of anxiety disorders for years. The book includes present-moment awareness (mindfulness) techniques, motivational tools for overcoming experiential avoidance, and cognitive tools for reframing anxiety and fear. In addition, you will learn how to use your personal values as a vehicle for lasting change. While most anxiety treatments have focused on symptom reduction, this book teaches you the skills needed to better handle the underlying emotional reactions that lead to anxiety and panic in the first place. If you are ready to stop avoiding situations that cause you to panic and get back to living a full life, this book is a powerful resource that can help you make a lasting change using an innovative, transdiagnostic approach.

Download or read book On Edge written by Andrea Petersen and published by Crown. This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A celebrated science and health reporter offers a wry, bracingly honest account of living with anxiety. A racing heart. Difficulty breathing. Overwhelming dread. Andrea Petersen was first diagnosed with an anxiety disorder at the age of twenty, but she later realized that she had been experiencing panic attacks since childhood. With time her symptoms multiplied. She agonized over every odd physical sensation. She developed fears of driving on highways, going to movie theaters, even licking envelopes. Although having a name for her condition was an enormous relief, it was only the beginning of a journey to understand and master it—one that took her from psychiatrists’ offices to yoga retreats to the Appalachian Trail. Woven into Petersen’s personal story is a fascinating look at the biology of anxiety and the groundbreaking research that might point the way to new treatments. She compares psychoactive drugs to non-drug treatments, including biofeedback and exposure therapy. And she explores the role that genetics and the environment play in mental illness, visiting top neuroscientists and tracing her family history—from her grandmother, who, plagued by paranoia, once tried to burn down her own house, to her young daughter, in whom Petersen sees shades of herself. Brave and empowering, this is essential reading for anyone who knows what it means to live on edge.

Book Synopsis The Anxiety Bloke by : Bradley Allan

Book excerpt: Who is the Anxiety bloke?My name is Bradley Allan, I have issues, lots of bloody issues.I am a married 39-year-old father of 3.I am not a writer, in fact I flunked English at school and this is the first thing I've ever put effort into when it comes to writing.The thought of writing down my feelings and issues is overwhelming but at the same time is already making me feel like I have a sense of purpose.For many years I had no idea or understanding why I acted and felt like I did and was not just scared of how I acted and felt but also embarrassed, speaking up was just not an option and I felt very much alone.Over the years I have read many books on anxiety and mental health, but very few actually made me feel like I understood what the writer is really saying and I felt like I just couldn't relate to them, in reality they are mostly the same text book approach that I've read over and over where I give up reading and the book is thrown with the rest of my failed purchases.I find it very frustrating that someone can write a book on Anxiety because they have studied it but never experienced or felt it.I have attended multiple counselling sessions, listened to dozens of self-help apps on my phone, viewed dozens of hypnoses on YouTube but yet I am still the same person and often living my daily nightmare.I have tried CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) which did help but like most things my head and train of thought soon over ruled it, perhaps if I had tried it before I got to the level of Anxiety I have it may have worked better for me, if it works for you great but we are all different when it comes to coping and conquering.I do believe CBT has its place and I will cover how it went for me and how I tweaked what I learned to help me personally. I have searched for books and articles for many years to give me that cure or at least where I could relate to what I was reading but it was the same text book type stories and the same ways on how we should cope, that would be great if we were Robots and all made the same but we are not.When I told my family, I was writing a book they laughed and said you can barely write a Facebook post that makes sense never mind a book about Anxiety.Virtually every book I have read on Anxiety is either complicated and fries my head or is just plain dam boring.... that is what has fuelled this book in the first place.Over the years many people have asked me what can I have to worry about and why would I suffer anxiety, there is no reason, I just have it. Simple.I look and act just like most guys or at least I try and acts like most guys.Front the outside I am pretty powerfully built guy having enjoyed lifting weight for quite a few years, I have lots of tattoos and I can come across as a bit of a character but I can also be very weak and crippled with issues when anxiety grips hold of me and takes control.People often say how confident I come across and when anxiety isn't present in my head I actually can be a pretty confident person in the right situation.It took me a long time to understand my anxiety and just how far it would push me, not many people realise but anxiety is a medical condition and you do need to treat and understand it just like any illness, just how you do that varies from person to person but I hope this book even hopes a little bit towards that.Anxiety is not a sign of weakness, as many people think and can actually be a sign of strength. More often people with anxiety will soldier on for months or many years before seeking treatment, I know I certainly did and for such a long time was almost oblivious to just how crazy my life had become.Google has millions of articles on Anxiety but they seldom helped me, I like real world talk and real-world scenarios and that is the aim of this book.

Book Synopsis Under Pressure by : Lisa Damour, Ph.D.
Download or read book Under Pressure written by Lisa Damour, Ph.D. and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2019-02-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An urgently needed guide to the alarming increase in anxiety and stress experienced by girls from elementary school through college, from the author of Untangled “An invaluable read for anyone who has girls, works with girls, or cares about girls—for everyone!”—Claire Shipman, author of The Confidence Code and The Confidence Code for Girls Though anxiety has risen among young people overall, studies confirm that it has skyrocketed in girls. Research finds that the number of girls who said that they often felt nervous, worried, or fearful jumped 55 percent from 2009 to 2014, while the comparable number for adolescent boys has remained unchanged. As a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with girls, Lisa Damour, Ph.D., has witnessed this rising tide of stress and anxiety in her own research, in private practice, and in the all-girls’ school where she consults. She knew this had to be the topic of her new book. In the engaging, anecdotal style and reassuring tone that won over thousands of readers of her first book, Untangled, Damour starts by addressing the facts about psychological pressure. She explains the surprising and underappreciated value of stress and anxiety: that stress can helpfully stretch us beyond our comfort zones, and anxiety can play a key role in keeping girls safe. When we emphasize the benefits of stress and anxiety, we can help our daughters take them in stride. But no parents want their daughter to suffer from emotional overload, so Damour then turns to the many facets of girls’ lives where tension takes hold: their interactions at home, pressures at school, social anxiety among other girls and among boys, and their lives online. As readers move through the layers of girls’ lives, they’ll learn about the critical steps that adults can take to shield their daughters from the toxic pressures to which our culture—including we, as parents—subjects girls. Readers who know Damour from Untangled or the New York Times, or from her regular appearances on CBS News, will be drawn to this important new contribution to understanding and supporting today’s girls. Praise for Under Pressure “Truly a must-read for parents, teachers, coaches, and mentors wanting to help girls along the path to adulthood.”—Julie Lythcott-Haims, New York Times bestselling author of How to Raise an Adult
