Product Description Do the things you worry about feel overwhelming sometimes? Is anxiety getting in the way of making friends, dating, getting good grades, or just getting through the day? You may be wondering whether it's only developmental and will go away, or something more serious? This "survival guide" will help you identify the kind of anxiety you are having, how "normal" it is, and what you can do about. Written by a Cognitive Behavioral therapist who's specialized in helping anxious teens, she 'll show you how to identify and deal with not only everyday anxiety, but with phobias, social anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), agoraphobia, separation anxiety, and generalized anxiety. If you feel like your anxiety is taking over your life, this book will help you get it back. If confidence, independence and happiness is what you're after, this is your guide!
