There are many forms of anxiety disorder, including General Anxiety
Disorder (GAD), Panic Attacks, Phobias (including social anxiety),
Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and
Acute Stress Disorder. Even in their most mild forms, these
disorders can be troubling and exhausting – at worst they can
severely disable a person’s ability to function in day-to-day
life. Severe anxiety and phobic disorders affect 18% of the UK
population. (nopanic.org.uk)
Symptoms of anxiety range from the mental and emotional –
depression, having difficulty concentrating, losing patience easily
– to the physical – excessive thirst, headaches, pins
and needles, and more (www.bbc.co.uk) Often the problem is
self-feeding – people try to keep things under control whilst
simultaneously worrying about being anxious all the time, and the
cycle goes on. Psychotherapy, medication and self help are the key
treatments for anxiety – however, as many people either
don’t have access to, or choose not to take, professional
treatment, self help is the key for a majority of sufferers. A
Dummies book on the subject will present the facts without the
jargon, and help people find the trustworthy guidance they
need.
