Anxiety rates are spiralling especially among women and young people with an 'epidemic of mental illness' among adolescents according to social psychologist Jonathan Haidt. A third of the world's population live with an anxiety disorder at any one time and in the UK more than 8 million people will experience one. The factors behind the anxiety crisis seem obvious social media addiction climate despair and economic inequalities leading to paralysing anxiety alienation and despair. But while we wait for politicians and tech companies to do the right thing to alleviate anxiety's societal causes what can we do as individuals to live well alongside it? This is a book that looks at anxiety differently. Instead of allowing it to keep us stuck and lonely it suggests we turn towards it ceasing to see it as a problem to solve and instead as a truth to acknowledge accept and work with. If we let anxiety have power over us we are fixed and static with no room for questioning no opportunity for change and renewal. But if we recognise anxiety as our alert system telling us that something isn't right rather than allowing it to destabilise us if we listen to what it is telling us rather than quietening it then it can propel us towards action. It's letting intuition guide us not fear. It's seeing anxiety as a tool not a trap. With less than half of the people living with an anxiety disorder likely to seek support this guide features helpful advice from experts and tools and tips based on years of Sian's original research to help readers understand learn from and live alongside our anxiety rather than trying to banish it or allowing it to spin us out of control. If you have failed to free yourself from your anxiety despite trying everything if you are done with trying to get rid of it then this is the book for you.
