Health anxiety

[NGarg]

I have major health anxiety. Any books you can suggest to overcome it??

Anything by Claire Weekes.

Ditto. Her self help for the nerves - it was like reading an autobiography.

Agree with the other posts. Claire Weekes was amazing and her books are all easy reading and explain everything so well. The one I liked best is "Hope and Help For Your Nerves." Best book ever for anxiety sufferers.

Do it... it helps.

Have a highlighter handy when you read it. My copy is marked up pretty good! Occasionally, I scan the highlighted parts for reassurance. It helps when you're having a hard time concentrating. When I'm having a high anxiety day, sometimes I have to read a paragraph over again until it sinks in so the highlighted "relevant to me" parts, make it easier.

I am so sorry you are dealing with this! Anxiety is such a difficult thing to have. I do not know of any books to recommend but I can recommend some things that help me with my anxiety. Getting outside and going for a walk or a bike ride is what helps me the most! I hope everything gets better.
