Product Description
Since its first edition in 1990, The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook has sold more than 600,000 copies. Its engaging exercises and worksheets have helped millions of readers make real progress in overcoming problems with anxiety and phobic disorders. The Authoritative Guide to Self-Help Resources in Mental Health (Norcross, et al., 2003) gave the book its highest rating and praised it as "a highly regarded and widely known resource." Thousands of mental health and medical professionals recommend this book to their clients and patients every year. Simply put, it is the single finest source of self-help information on its topic available anywhere.

The text of this fourth edition has been fully revised and expanded and includes two new chapters: a discussion of physical conditions that can aggravate anxiety and an overview of the use of mindfulness practice in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder and some forms of obsessive-compulsive disorder. As in previous editions, the book offers the most up-to-date information on medications, natural supplements, and complementary strategies that can alleviate anxiety symptoms. The sections on relaxation, nutrition, and exercise have all been updated and broadened.

5 out of 5 stars Coping with anxiety   November 16, 2008
The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook by Edmund J Bourne is a valuable therapeutic tool for people who are willing to follow its lessons to improve their mood. I bought it for somebody in my family who suffers from anxiety and occasional panic attacks but I have used it for fifteen years with very good results in my clinical work with patients. I strongly recommend this valuable resource for learning skills to overcome the debilitating symptoms of anxiety.


4 out of 5 stars Comprehensive   October 13, 2008
Excellent...Comprehensive. Every approach worth considering that I know of is covered and many more...and coherently put together, not just a jumble of unrelated techniques. Only reason I haven't given it the full 5 stars is because I haven't been putting it into practice yet, and so can't unequivocably vouch for the results yet.


5 out of 5 stars Real help is in this book   October 5, 2008
Very comprehensive and detailed description on many aspects of dealing with anxiety and phobia. From physical and mental, all the explanations, the exercises and workshops, and the advice and examples will help you get back on the road to recovery. Book recommended by psychologists.


5 out of 5 stars Worked better than local Doctors   September 20, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book was a life saver!!! We had brought our son to several Doctors, tried some medications and were getting no where. What finally helped us and our son was the social worker at my sons' school, and this book. If you follow what this book tells you to do to get through full blown panic attacks and anxiety, it will work. I had bought several books before this one, that were absolutely worthless. This is the only book you need to learn helpful techniques to work through your anxiety. This book changed our sons life. He is a happy, healthy boy again. He feels empowered, because now when he feels a panic attack coming on he has coping strategies that work for him.


5 out of 5 stars excellent book   September 14, 2008
The axiety and phobia book. Im still reading it. Its a great reassurance book. Keeps it in your mind that when your having anxiety and feel like your gonna die.. your actually not. And its perfectly normal and healthy for your body to do those things. I love the book so far!
