Description:

Anxiety is part of human life; sometimes it can even be necessary or useful. But what happens when anxiety takes control? When you feel it defines you many times?

In this groundbreaking book, author and psychotherapist Owen O’Kane explores how most of us unconsciously create habits around our anxiety. He argues that this is how we become "addicted" – the behaviors and thought patterns that help us feel safe in the short term ultimately keep us in this state.

The answer? Break the cycle.

• Recognize: You need to understand your anxiety and identify your triggers before you can start to dismantle it.
• Confront: Discover vital techniques to break the underlying habits and patterns.
• Move Forward: Learn strategies to guide you through setbacks or relapses in the future.

"Addicted to Anxiety" will help you understand your anxiety from the perspective of addiction, identify your triggers, and learn how to break your habits to replace them with new, more productive behaviors for a calmer and happier life.
