Books!

Hi there,

I would like to know what books have helped you, inspired you or helped heal your anxiety disorder?
I'm looking for new ones to read and inspire me...and I'm sure many others could use a reference list.

I just purchased The Power of Now - Eckhardt Tolle which was recommended to me by my therapist.
I also downloaded the Happiness Project and the Book of Awesome - which I can't wait to read!

I'd love to find some biographies of people who have lived with these disorders....it gets a bit tiring only reading 'how to stop panic' type books and I think to read some actual accounts
would be great.... but I don't know where to start.

Please list your favorite books relating to overcoming Anxiety/Depression :)

At Last A Life by Paul David.

Paul David is a recovered A/P sufferer. I knew I was headed down the right path, but reading this book connected a couple missing links for me and help me tweak my way of thinking.

 

I also liked how it had a section for the partners of sufferers to read to help them understand what their partner is going through, this book has certainly taken me to the next level of recovery with the potential to full recovery..........WM

Hi Wingman and VG,

I think it's a great idea ValentineGirl to look for positive references as I think
sometimes (speaking for myself) , I can remain stuck by focusing on anxiety
and negativity - instead of moving on and seeing the positive.

Wingman, your words and advice are so true and more than I learned in
my counseling sessions. I will look into the reading suggestions.
