I've read some very good reviews about this book written by a previous anxiety sufferer and have just ordered it. Anyone want to offer a review or recommend similar anxiety management books?

    Have not read it but will. Another good book is 'stop thinking and start living'. Excellent for obsessive thinkers...

    Yes it really struck a chord with me. I was really positive after reading it but then i've had a bad bout of really horrible symptoms and finding it hard to ignore, so will need to re-visit.  There are a lot of stories from others but i found that positive. xx

    Hiya David, im actually reading it just now,and as Catherine said its struck a few chords with me, I think it will be one of these books that we will find ourselves picking up again after we've read it 2 get us through the really bad days and 2 remind ourselves we will overcome this nightmare, take care and I hope you enjoy the book xx

    Hi David,

    I read so many books and articles on anxiety in the last 15 years that I have to say it didn't teach me anything. Always nice to read someone else's story and realise that you are not on your own of course but nothing life changing for me. All the best x
