Book that has concrete strategies and behaviors to help you deal with anxiety. Each item is presented with an explanation in a straightforward way. Common objections, criticisms, and pitfalls are presented with support for the author's methods. She doesn't dumb it down or try to make you feel bad about yourself. I never actually finished the book. I got enough out of it to help my anxiety issues. I'm not saying that I'm NEVER anxious, but it helped me to feel more in control of what was happening. If I feel that I need a little more help, I would happily go back and read some more, and try some more techniques. The only negative thing that I will say is the section on improving sleep is pretty generic and not terribly helpful. Much of the book may be helpful in improving some types of sleep problems related to anxiety, so I'll cut the author some slack.

It should be noted, of course, that if you have mental health problems, in addition to the book, you may want to seek the help of a professional.
