Drawing On Anxiety is a beautifully illustrated, interactive, timely and friendly art therapy journal to draw out, draw on and draw through in anxious times.

Part memoir, part self-help and self-care, this creative journal full of guided prompts and grounding affirmations is a mindful, positive tool for exploring your body’s natural response to stress.

Illustrator and author Kate Sutton draws on her own personal experiences of dealing with anxiety to create a warm and friendly journal that encourages you to be kind to yourself, take a moment and explore your feelings through the act of drawing.

Built on art therapy principles and filled with prompts to help you express yourself on the page, as well as affirmations which help remind us that it will all be okay, this diary will help give you the resilience and strength needed to make it through those difficult moments.

This book is part of the Drawing On... series, a collection of creative guided journals which help readers explore difficult topics including anxiety and grief. Also available is Drawing On Grief, which explores the delicate and difficult subject of loss, and how art therapy can help us navigate this painful time.

a lovely fun book that really does help relieve anxiety

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 17, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

Well, this is a new type of book for me. When I was growing up, I was never allowed to write/draw in books, so putting a pen to this book taking was hard at first — but when I ordered the book I vowed that I would just go ahead and draw in it. And I’m glad I did. It is fun to draw ferns on a green page or draw a scene out an airplane window —with the ‘window’ already printed there on the page. And having fun seems to help calm anxiety. 
This small book is nicely made — it is not spiral bound, but it opens flat enough to write and draw in it easily. I like the small size because I can carry it along. The illustrations are colorful and fun. There are all sorts of different prompts to respond to. Sometimes I read several different pages before I choose which prompt to follow at that moment. Some prompts suggest that you draw things that are very concrete, such as items in your pocket. Other prompts encourage you to draw something abstract, like a feeling or your ‘inner critic.’ Of course, this book is not about creating professional art, but sometimes my perfectionist personality worries that my drawings are horrible, and this book has prompts for days when I feel inadequate to draw a picture for myself. For example, there is a page with basic outlines drawn of an owl, and the prompt is to add detail. Even on a bad day I can add detail to an owl! Though this book is primarily interactive, with me drawing things on most pages, the author also provides good insights and useful strategies for dealing with anxiety. There is an index to help you so if you want to find one of those tips or a particular prompt again.  
So, this was a great gift to myself. And I think I’ll be gifting it to my anxious friends.

Sweet and friendly book to help you creatively grapple with anxiety

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 21, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

This little book (5.4" x 6.5") by Kate Sutton offers a friendly way to work through anxious moments. Written from the perspective of a sympathetic pal, who has suffered anxiety herself, the seemingly handwritten pages offer a gentle way to re-focus anxious energy. You are not expected to draw well; you are simply invited to draw out (pun intended) your anxiety, sometimes by working through its source and sometimes by shifting your focus to other things in order to diminish anxiety's negative effects. An especially nice feature of the book is the list of resources at the end, ranging from helpful websites to other insightful books. What bothers me about _Drawing on Anxiety_, though—but which may not bother you—are the author's numerous punctuation errors. I have worked as a writer and editor for many years, and I currently teach freshman comp at a college, and Sutton's mistakes make me grind my teeth because readers assume that published books are carefully edited and error-free. Also, sorry, Kate Sutton, but "cycular" (p. 12) is not a word—"cyclic," yes, and "circular," yes, but not "cycular." Sentence-level errors aside, this book offers helpful and productive ways to move through anxious moments, when you might otherwise just spin your wheels.

Great for mindfulness, but does not treat anxiety

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 24, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

As someone diagnosed with clinical anxiety, it can be hard to be present. This book has some basic anxiety tips from the author, but it should not be used to clinically treat or 'cure' anxiety.

Having to focus on something at hand helps distract the mind, and this book is perfect to prompt one to draw and distract their mind to be in the moment. The prompts can help bring emotions to the surface, but should then be worked through with a licensed therapist. I am someone who needs to process first before speaking, so I can see using this to draw and get emotions out in the moment, and then flag it for therapy sessions.

I like how it is smaller in size to take on the go, and each page is colorful and with space to draw. You can also jump around as each page is unique and stand-alone.

Lots of helpful pages.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 1, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

I actually got this for my niece and decided to keep it. I am not much of a creative person but do have occasional anxiety. This book combines blank topic related spaces and prompts with statement pages that for me make me feel good knowing I am not alone. The book is made nice with thick paper that can handle the writing. The only thing I do not like it the cover just looks dirty. It actually gives me some anxiety. Lol. See photo.

Fun little mental health exercises

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 27, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

This book is well laid out and comes with good exercises to help calm your anxiety. I've been working my way through the book and it's clear that someone put in the work to help you find calm. This will work well with other method of finding calm. On its own it probably won't fully help you to cope with anxiety but it may help.

Nice idea that would make a good gift.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 23, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

This would be a good gift for someone who is open about having anxiety. It's thoughtfully designed and very aesthetically pleasing. It's a good compact size that one could easily throw in a bag or purse when traveling. The open-ended nature of the prompts kind of reminds me of an adult version of "anti coloring book" type texts that I had growing up, which is fun!

Cute and useful book, but damaged

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 18, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

This is a really cute little book that could potentially help ease your anxiety, or at the very least distract you for a while. Unfortunately, I had to subtract a star because the book I received is dirty. The pages seem fine and usable, but the cover looks pretty awful. I also hate when there's a hard to remove sticker put directly on a book. I do enjoy the illustrations and prompts, and am looking forward to drawing in it. Overall I'd recommend it, but hopefully yours will arrive in better condition!

A neat, but expensive book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 21, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

For what this book is, I thought it was fine. For one, I think that it is kind of expensive for what you get (and the amount of content you get, ultimately). However, I do think that this is an important and useful book for those who struggle with anxiety. It uses art therapy techniques to help a person rid themselves of their anxiety.
