“Relatable and comforting and challenging all at once. Don’t be afraid to read this book.” —Jenny Lawson, author of Furiously Happy A funny and wise guide and workbook for conquering fears, from the existential to the everyday, and defeating the monster those fears can become: anxiety This is a book about fear. About how it works, how it takes hold over us, and how it dogs us from childhood (the monsters under the bed) to adulthood (careers, relationships, accidentally sending that risky text to the wrong person--all the things that make us want to bite our nails). But this is also a book about that monster our fear can warp into when it grows too powerful, a phenomenon we are all too familiar with and that more and more of us are struggling against: anxiety. Author and illustrator Amalia Andrade had her own battle with anxiety, and not only did she make it out the other side, she learned sometimes it's the very thing that almost sinks you that can save you. Through the lessons, exercises, and often hilarious personal stories Amalia shares in these pages, together you will learn how to make those feelings your friends and turn your fears into superpowers.

Escribir contraportadas de libros (especialmente las de uno mismo) es muy difícil. A continuación lo intentaré: este libro es sobre el miedo. Sobre cómo funciona, cómo se adueña de nosotros y cómo nos persigue desde la infancia. Si antes les temíamos a los monstruos debajo de la cama, hoy también. Pero no todo es tan malo. Todos sentimos miedo sin importar de dónde somos, cuántos años tenemos, o si nos gusta o no el chocolate, Yo, por ejemplo, casi me muero de ansiedad (que es miedo en su máxima potencia) y sobreviví. No sólo sobreviví sino que aprendí que lo que te hunde te salva. Así que en estas páginas encontrarán cómo hacer del miedo su mejor amigo y cómo convertir sus temores en poderes. Lo que te hunde te salva.
