Your Brain Isn't Broken
Description
You've been awake at 3 a.m. with your heart racing and your thoughts spinning in circles. You've felt afraid when there was nothing in front of you to be afraid of. You've wondered why you can't just relax the way other people seem to manage without effort.
Nothing is wrong with you. Your brain is doing its job. It's doing it too enthusiastically, but it is not broken.
In this short, science-based read from licensed clinical psychologist Patricia A. Farrell, PhD, you'll learn what anxiety actually is, why it produces the physical symptoms it does, how the worry loop works and what breaks it, and four evidence-based tools that interrupt the alarm cycle before it takes over your day.
Dr. Farrell brings decades of clinical experience specializing in anxiety disorders to every page. She does not offer empty reassurance. She offers accurate information. Because once you understand what is happening in your brain, anxiety starts to lose its power over you.
You are not broken. You just need a better map. This book is your map.
