This book, and also the book below, are both written by AUK patron, Dr Chris Williams. They use a model called the “5 areas approach” to break problems down into their constituent parts and therefore make them easier to manage. These areas include physical feelings, life situation, altered thinking, altered behaviour and emotional feelings. This books can be worked through in sequence, or you can “dip in and out” to find the chapters that are most relevant for you. They are based on a CBT approach, and are therefore in line with current guidance from the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) on the treatment of anxiety and depression.

“An excellent CBT self-help tool. The format is clear and the activities excellent, plus all the points made are reviewed at regular intervals to reinforce them. It was recommended to me by my GP and I can see why he considers it so useful. If you suffer from anxiety and are prepared to work at overcoming it, then this is the best book I have come across so far. I recognised so many of the symptoms which are referred to and was able, immediately, to see ways around them. It all takes time and is a bit like doing homework, but I can see some light at the end of the tunnel for the first time in many, many years.”
