Book Description

Publication Date: January 9, 2001

Worry is one of the most common mood disorders in America. Whether you call it stress, tension, frustration, or anxiety, worry can take its toll on health and well-being. It can be caused by life changes, such as divorce or career upheaval, or it can become a debilitating chronic disorder. The Worry Workbook helps readers understand what causes anxiety and how they can move beyond worry into emotional freedom. Practical steps, interactive exercises, checklists, and guided questions help readers identify their fears, replace negative talk with positive action, learn to accept what is out of their control, and make life-enhancing choices. The Worry Workbook offers insight on letting go of self-judgment, becoming real, identifying those who help and those who hinder personal growth, and overcoming insecurities-offering those who suffer from anxiety proven ways to find relief.

4.0 out of 5 stars Concise and practical., July 29, 2001

This review is from: The Worry Workbook: Twelve Steps to Anxiety-Free Living (Paperback)

This book which falls into the self-help category is a well written book that is easy to read for most. While the required writing will be helpful to all, those who are well read in this area of anxiety and worry can benefit just from reading. The most helpful things are the case studies in which one can often see one's own life mirrored. Although the authors are Christians the material is not overtly spiritual or preachy and can be read by people of all faiths or no faith at all. I give it four stars for the authors ability to say plainly, without a lot of psychological jargon, what can truly be of help to others. I am purchasing this extra copy as a gift for a friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Educational, Informative, and Inspiring!, July 7, 2004

This review is from: The Worry Workbook: Twelve Steps to Anxiety-Free Living (Paperback)

This book helped me understand a lot of the reasons for my intense social anxiety. Of course, working through the anxiety with a professional Christian counselor was the biggest help for me personally, but this book was a great addition to the therapeutic process. The book offers great spiritual insight into the agony of anxiety.
