Up to 44 in every 1000 adults suffer from a condition known as
Generalised Anxiety Disorder. This is much more than the normal
worrying we all do - it can be a debilitating disorder leading to
significant personal and social problems and sometimes financial
loss. Using established and proven CBT techniques, expert
clinicians Kevin Meares and Mark Freeston help readers to
understand that it is their propensity to worry, not the multitude
of problems they worry about, that is the root of the problem. The
user-friendly, step-by-step approach explains why they worry, how
to recognise what feeds it and develop effective methods of dealing
with it. With each step the authors introduce new ideas that add to
the picture of worry, and use questionnaires, exercises and tasks
to help the reader understand and then challenge unhelpful habits
and beliefs.
