Have you ever felt the first twinge of anxiety and wondered what to do about it? Did it grow arms and legs and send you spiralling into a panic attack, or trigger a phobia or even depression? We are bombarded by information through our TVs and phones that isn't always good for us; information that can cause anxiety, uncertainty, panic and fear, all of which affect our mental health. The last year has been particularly hard on us all, with our lives disrupted and in some cases hardly recognisable to what they were pre-pandemic. How do you feel? Would you like to feel better? This short book outlines the main triggers for anxiety, how we can recognise the symptoms, and what we can do to help ourselves through simple things like humour and good food, but also through interventions like hypnosis or counselling if we need a little extra help. The author suffered from crippling anxiety for years, which led to him pursuing a career in psychotherapy at Regents College, London. He knows what it feels like to be completely overcome by anxiety, but also knows firsthand that it is possible to learn to manage this debilitating state. It is his hope that you benefit from what he has written, and will pass this book on to anyone who you think might need it too.
