CBT Book Great, July 27 2009
By Lauren D - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anxiety: A Step-by-Step Program (Paperback)
I had been suffering with panic attacks and generalized anxiety for a few months. I tried therapy, meds, ect and found them all to be not for me. I was pointed to Cognitive Behavior Therapy by a college counselor, and bought this book. I LOVE it. It is set-up very well, has charts to write in, and has really reduced my anxiety. I have been doing a chapter (about 8 pages) a week for about 8 weeks and have really noticed a change. I highly recommend this book!

This book changed my life, Jun 25 2011
By Valerie Gravel "Electrastar" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anxiety: A Step-by-Step Program (Paperback)
I had been struggling with anxiety all my life and I didn't even know it. It got out of hand 6 years ago during my final year in university. I just had these crazy thoughts, that freaked me out and didn't make any kind of sense and I couldn't handle them.I took medication and things settled down a little only to come back with a vengeance when I started a job I didn't really like. Well, as things would have happened, I got fired, but I decided it was time to take this problem into my own hands. I stumbled upon this book by accident. Reading books is the only thing I had not tried yet, I went to doctors, psychologist, psychiatrists and I took medication...so what did I have to lose.
This book opened my eyes. It gave me so much information on my problem that I just couldn't figure out on my own because I was so anxious and tensed. It really feels like you have your own little doctor talking to you in each page and everything is explained so clearly. It took me three months to read it cover to cover and I noticed some changes in the first weeks of starting the program.
Now, I read through it every month and I have reduced my medication, without any complications so far. If all goes well, in three months time (because I'm taking it slow) I should be off medication for good. My anxiety still makes cameo appearances in my life from time to time, but, I can control it now. These are my thoughts, and I am not gonna let them rule over me anymore, thanks to this book.

Very Helpful Workbook, July 30 2010

This review is from: The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anxiety: A Step-by-Step Program (Paperback)
I purchased this book to help me with anxiety issues and found it to be a very good self help tool. The exercises and action plans really helped me to see I can view anxiety differently and stop letting it control my life so much. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes self help programs. I haven't even finished the book yet but by using what I have learned so far I am able to approach circumstances that cause anxiety in a much more positive manner.
