Description:

In this invaluable guide, Dr. Claire Weekes dispenses with the formalities, addressing the reader directly for what amounts to a long, consoling trek through the problems of anxiety. For Weekes, the root of the problem is the sympathetic nervous system. This system`s involuntary response to emotions is what causes them to be expressed physically in the body. Thus fear and stress trigger a quiver in the pit of the stomach, shaking in the hands, and shortness of breath. Feelings of disgrace, obsession, sorrow, and guilt can all trigger physical responses that can become addictive even in their destructive aspects. Weekes works on guiding the reader through the processes whereby these problems are recognized and overcome, and does so with the comforting but authoritative voice of a family doctor making a house call and dispensing advice.
