Coping with Anxiety and Depression (Overcoming Common Problems)

Sheldon Press, 2002. Paperback. Used: Acceptable. This is an updated self-help guide for anyone who suffers from depression and anxiety. It explains how and why these conditions occur, suggesting positive ways of coping successfully. It includes case histories, and describes the different drug and non-drug treatments available. A list of additional books and tapes is also included. Reviewer: A reader I had to write a review as this book has really helped me. Firstly, it lists all the symptoms of anxiety and depression, which you read and instantly feel more normal! There were so many moments whilst reading this book when i said "oh yeah!!" out loud because it made so much sense. It gives you drug and non-drug methods of help, including how to breathe properly (sounds silly, but helps if you keep up the practice) and eat to reduce panics. Highly recommended. An excellent book, written in plain English with easy to understand case histories. Offers practical advice and steps to help everyone deal with these issues, no matter how large or small they may be. Cannot recommend this enough. Have sent this book overseas to friends in need of support at times of crisis and all have rated it very highly Paperback, 0-85969-762-2 - 2002 - good condition - - . isbn 0859697622.
