Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A funny, touching and hopeful memoir from national TV host, TEDx speaker and survivor of stage 3 melanoma, Dave Aizer.For over 20 years, Dave Aizer has hosted TV shows for Nickelodeon, CBS, The CW, Fox Sports and more. He's interviewed countless celebrities and hosted morning shows, game shows, red carpets and sporting events. Although Dave has no problem under the bright lights, the bright sun turned out to be a huge problem for him, as it gave Dave advanced melanoma. Dave's battle with this aggressive cancer was made much worse by his tendency to be a raging hypochondriac. In A Hypochondriac's Guide To Beating Cancer Dave shares his numerous neurotic meltdowns during his melanoma journey. Every symptom became, in his mind, the cancer ravaging his body, no matter what the CAT scans, blood work and his team of doctors said. A harmless cough had to be lung cancer, his foot falling asleep clearly was a spinal tumor, the little cyst on his forehead was undoubtedly bone cancer, and that imaginary smell could only be a brain tumor! None of those crises, nor the countless other ones he experienced, turned out to be anything of consequence. But that didn't stop Dave from obsessing about all of them.Dave's goal with this book is to make you laugh (even if it's at his expense), but also to give you hope and let you know it's okay to be scared, angry and irrational if you're going through a crisis. Think of this as your "permission slip" book. Your guide to own your feelings, whatever they may be. Please know that all the physical, mental and emotional pain Dave experienced led him to find purpose and gratitude, a message he hopes resonates with you. A Hypochondriac's Guide To Beating Cancer will make you laugh, make you cry and probably make you call your doctor. But after reading it you'll believe that if Dave can make it through his battle, you can make it through yours as well!

Book excerpt: When 55-year-old Marie Fricker complained of a burning hot foot, chills, and a pins-and-needles feeling crawling up her leg, nobody paid much attention. Marie was a lifelong hypochondriac and frequently predicted her own doom from perceived maladies ranging from cholera to the common cold. As far as her friends and family were concerned, this was just one more. It wasn't. Three weeks after the birth of her first grandchild, Marie was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. She was treated with chemotherapy and went into remission but was given only a 20 percent chance of surviving five years without a recurrence. Eight years later, the author tells her story of fear, perseverance, and hope with a wry humor that sheds light into the dark abyss of battling a catastrophic disease. You will laugh and cry with her and benefit from her Top 15 List of practical strategies for coping with cancer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling approachable guide that has inspired thousands of readers to manage or overcome depression — fully revised and updated for life in the 21st century. Depression rates around the world have skyrocketed in the 20‑plus years since Richard O'Connor first published his classic book on living with and overcoming depression. Nearly 40 million American adults suffer from the condition, which affects nearly every aspect of life, from relationships, to job performance, physical health, productivity, and, of course, overall happiness. And in an increasingly stressful and overwhelming world, it's more important than ever to understand the causes and effects of depression, and what we can do to overcome it. In this fully revised and updated edition — which includes updated information on the power of mindfulness, the relationship between depression and other diseases, the risks and side effects of medication, depression’s effect on thinking, and the benefits of exercise — Dr. O'Connor explains that, like heart disease and other physical conditions, depression is fueled by complex and interrelated factors: genetic, biochemical, environmental. But Dr. O'Connor focuses on an additional factor that is often overlooked: our own habits. Unwittingly we get good at depression. We learn how to hide it, and how to work around it. We may even achieve great things, but with constant struggle rather than satisfaction. Relying on these methods to make it through each day, we deprive ourselves of true recovery, of deep joy and healthy emotion. Undoing Depression teaches us how to replace depressive patterns with a new and more effective set of skills. We already know how to "do" depression—and we can learn how to undo it. With a truly holistic approach that synthesizes the best of the many schools of thought about this painful disease, and a critical eye toward medications, O'Connor offers new hope—and new life—for sufferers of depression.
