Fear is a normal emotion. For some, however, fear is more extreme and disruptive than this: approximately 10 per cent of people have an anxiety disorder at any one time, only a tiny proportion of which receive appropriate psychological treatment. This book provides you with information about fear and how to cope with it, so that you can reclaim your life. Dr. Warren Mansell, a clinical psychologist and lecturer with extensive experience in research on anxiety and phobias, writes accessibly and supportively. He provides real-life examples and many easy-to-learn techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), all of which will help you develop a lasting change: learning to accept your experiences, to draw on your strengths, and to develop your personal values.
