Hello everyone. I haven't been on this site long. I've never been on any support site but finally decided to. The people on here are fantastic & I've read quite a few things that have helped me SO much! I've also seen a few people suggest reading something by Claire Weekes. I wasn't sure which book to buy or if there was one in particular that people liked the most. I ordered the Hope & Help For Your Nerves. I can't wait to start reading it.

You chose the right book, Kel76, that was the first book she wrote (it's titled 'Self help for your nerves' in the U.K). In it she sets out her method for recovery from anxiety disorder. It was written a long time ago but has withstood the test of time. Basically her method depends on doing the opposite to what you're probably doing now. Stop fighting the symptoms of your anxiety. Accept them completely (for the moment). Stop trying to avoid the symptoms, let them come and pass through them. Don't look for a quick fix, let time pass.

I'll say no more except to welcome you to a group of kindred spirits who advise each other, support each other and encourage each other as we travel hopefully along the Yellow Brick Road to recovery🤗

Thank you Alan ! 😊

Excellent book to read Kel! I've read that one several times as well and refer back to it when needed. You're right, the people are here are wonderful and supportive!

It gives you insight into what’s going on with your nerves and how to deal with it. I like it.
