Cognitive-Behavioral therapy is the only scientifically and research-proven form of treatment for anxiety. It is not based on opinion, like many methods touted in the therapy and social media sphere by non-specialists and untrained coaches alike. A no-nonsense controversial aspect of this book is its non-victim approach. Some anxiety sufferers and therapists who approach anxiety symptoms with a badge of victimhood, might respond with anger. It's not my intention to upset anyone. However, it is my ultimate intention to help people overcome their anxiety issues and face fear. I see victimhood in my office almost every day and it's all over social media. Thousands of people wanting to lift the "stigma" of anxiety, so it can be recognized as a form of mental illness. Perhaps OCD has that potential for some sufferers, along with some other OCD-related neuro-biological outliers. That's why there should be a special chapter devoted to that diagnosis. However, considering all other forms, anxiety is not a mental illness. Fear is NOT a mental illness. Unfortunately, it is often a big part of the human condition. Some don't know who they are without their victim status. It is their self-created story. But fear is the real story. And accepting this reality, while following this book's no-nonsense methods, anxiety sufferers can break free, break through and get their life back.
