Summary:
Do you have problems with
anxiety
? The Anxious Teen
Survival
Guide
is a much-needed, go-to
guide
to help you finally break free from the
worry
and ruminations that can get in the way of reaching your goals. If you have
anxiety
, your fears and worries can keep you from feeling confident and independent. Teen milestones such as making friends, dating, getting good grades, or taking on more mature responsibilities, may seem much more difficult. And if you're like countless other anxious
teens
, you may even avoid situations that cause you
anxiety
altogether-leaving you stuck in a cycle of
worry
and avoidance. So, how can you take control of your
anxiety
before it takes control of you? Based in cognitive behavioral therapy (
CBT
) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), this book helps you identify your "monkey mind"-the primitive part of the brain where anxious thoughts arise. You'll also be able to determine if you suffer from generalized
anxiety
, phobias, social
anxiety
,
panic
and agoraphobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), or separation
anxiety
. Full of powerful yet simple cartoon illustrations, this book will teach you practical strategies for handling even the toughest situations that previously caused you to feel anxious or worried. If you're ready to feel more independent, more confident, and be your best, this unique book will show you how.
For
teens
, feeling independent is critical for building self-confidence. But for anxious
teens
, fears, worries, and rumination can stand in the way of achieving the developmental milestones that lead to independence--such as socializing, dating, academic success, or taking on more mature responsibilities. Based in cognitive behavioral therapy (
CBT
) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), The
Anxiety
Survival
Guide
for
Teens
is an engaging, illustrated resource to help
teens
skillfully work through situations that cause
anxiety
so they can focus on their goals. By identifying their "monkey mind"--the part of their brain where anxious thoughts arise--teens will start to feel more independent, more confident, and ready to take on the world.
