Anxiety for Beginners: A Personal Investigation
$12.99
Anxiety for Beginners offers a vivid insight into the crippling impact of anxiety disorder, a condition that is often invisible and frequently misunderstood.
Eleanor Morgan's first-person account of her own struggles with anxiety was published as part of 'The Vice Guide to Mental Health' and was read by five million people across fifteen countries within four days.
Anxiety for Beginners serves as a guide for those who live with anxiety disorders and those who live with them by proxy.
Combining her own experiences (rendered in emotive detail) with extensive research with experts (neurologists, psychiatrists, psychologists and fellow sufferers - including some familiar faces), Morgan explores not just the roots of her own anxiety, but also investigates what might be contributing to so many of us suffering around the world.
Anxiety for Beginners is, at its heart, a book about acceptance, as Morgan discovers the ways in which people can live a life that is not just manageable but enjoyable, learning to accept anxiety as part of who we are rather than spending a life fighting and being ashamed of it.
