I got that book on Amazon for like 6 bucks.  Definitely worth it.

I agree---Hope & Help is an awesome book (I bought it super cheap online after seeing it recommended on here so much).  I also have found the Anxiety & Phobia Workbook by Bourne to be insightful.

Yeah I also purchased a Panic Attack workbook which was/is very helpful.  I haven't been working with it lately....bad Amish.

When Panic Attacks by Dr Áine Tubridy

You get a cd with this book that takes you through breathing techniques and also included is a relaxation talk through as well. I'm sure it can be bought online. I got it from the author here in Ireland. One class book.

Hi, Mike!
The ONLY book that EVER did a thing for me is "Hope and Help For Your Nerves" by Dr. Claire Weekes!
I have GAD and it can be awful to deal with. Thankfully I'm doing much better. Something that has also helped me is Taurine. I am convinced that it has helped me greatly!

Wow, if I had had "Hope and Help for your Nerves" when my anxiety first started I would have been a different person...I don't get any heart anxiety anymore but I used to get it terribly and this book is great for that!! However, still, an amazing book thats been helping me!!

Any of the books by Claire Weeks are wonderful!

The Anxiety & Phobia workbook by Edmund Bourne has helped me tremedously.  Very informative.  I enjoyed how the workbook helped me find the cause of my anxiety, and how to work through them on a daily basis, at the end of each chapter, a person keeps a journal of improvements, answering questions, etc.....  

I was surprised to find out how much anxiety relates back to my childhood, upbringing etc....  The workbook taught me to identify my own personality.    

Through the workbook, I discovered I was a perfectionist, any part of my life that is out of perfection causes anxiety.  

I will need to check out the other books people have shared.

"At Last A Life" by Paul David.  His book is very easy to read and to the point.

Hope this helps!!
