Do you overthink before taking action? Are you susceptible to making negative predictions? Perform you worry about the worst that could happen? Perform you take negative feedback very difficult? Are you self-critical? Will anything less than perfect performance feel just like failure?

If these issues resonate with you, you’re probably experiencing some extent of anxiety, and you are not alone. The good thing: while cutting your panic level to zero isn’t feasible or useful (anxiety can actually be helpful!), you can learn to successfully manage symptoms – such as for example extreme rumination, hesitation, concern with criticism and paralysing perfection.

In The Anxiety Toolkit, Dr. Alice Boyes translates powerful, evidence-based tools used in therapy treatment centers into guidelines you can use in everyday life. Whether you have an panic, or are simply anxiety-prone by nature, you’ll discover how anxiousness works, strategies to help you deal with common panic ‘trapped’ factors and a self-confidence that – stressed or not – you have all the tools you need to succeed in life and function.
