A complete guide to the side-effects and treatments for anxiety disorders

High anxiety is an unfortunate byproduct of this world, and for approximately 20 million American adults a year, anxiety becomes a debilitating part of their lives. The psychological can become physical, causing dizziness, stammering, heart palpitations, trembling, shaking, and other symptoms. Unlike other books on anxiety disorders, Living Well with Anxiety offers a holistic approach to minimizing anxiety, presenting both conventional psychiatric and psychological approaches to anxiety conditions, as well as patient anecdotes, and nutrition, herbal, environmental, exercise and other healing measures to combat this disorder.

Living Well with Anxiety contains helpful advice for a wide range of anxiety disorders, including social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder and various phobias that cause anxiety. With a comprehensive resource section that contains websites, doctors, and helpful articles, this book, like all of the titles in the successful Living Well series, offers positive and far-reaching solutions to building a healthier life, both emotionally and physically.

      Clark (Living Well with Menopause
      ) offers a solution-focused approach to living with anxiety. A certified holistic nurse practitioner with a master's in mental health, Clark, who admits to being among the 30 million Americans who suffer from anxiety, is careful not to impose her bias against conventional medicine on readers. What makes this book stand out isn't the clinically accurate overview of anxiety's causes and effects or the contrast of medical and holistic treatments, but its person-centered, strategic action plans. Information-packed chapters provide a thorough examination of nutrition (to identify missing anxiety-reducing nutrients), herbal supplements and the impact of nicotine, alcohol and chemicals, time-management skills, the potent antianxiety benefits of exercise and much more. Clark also discusses situations that may require therapy or counseling and provides a comprehensive checklist for finding a practitioner. Finally, readers are encouraged to create an Anxiety Success Plan (sample included). For millions of sufferers from generalized anxiety, panic disorder, phobias and other forms of anxiety who don't want medication, this book provides viable alternatives to traditional medicine.
