A helpful little book.

Lots of interesting and informative content, albeit repetitive at times.

This book was pretty good. I especially enjoyed the start, which defined anxiety and its physical symptoms. The back end was also great with lots of solutions, and there are some great resources listed in the back. Part of the middle was slightly boring (to do with employment and society, but that's fine).
There was one part I didn't like: the advice to create a small amount of pain(nipping) to relieve anxiety. I just think this can lead to worse cases of self-harming, and it's not a good message to give out. I've never seen anything like that suggested in a book of this kind before.

This book shows us about many different questions you might encounter when dealing with anxiety, it is a helpful little book for anyone to read.
From the book we can learn that anxiety is not a monster we cannot control,but rather something might be peaceful to coexist with. This change of mindset equipped us with mental tools to face the illness with positivity and confidence .

quite useful but anytime I found a topic that I found useful to me it was cut short and provided very limited answers. The part on nutrition is fairly useful and gives you a good overview of what you're missing in your diet for a healthier body/mind
