Book synopsis

How you can stop worrying about your health and enjoy life. Many of us have a tendency to worry unnecessarily about our health. For some the anxiety becomes chronic, and they may spend many hours checking for symptoms, seeking reassurance from others, surfing the internet for information about different diseases, or repeatedly visiting the doctor. It is distressing for them and for everyone around them. In fact, health anxiety can be very successfully treated with cognitive behavioral therapy - the approach taken in this self-help guide. Using a structured, step-by-step approach the authors explain how the problem develops, how to recognize what feeds it and how to develop effective methods of dealing with it. Accessible and reassuring, this work includes questionnaires, case studies and exercises. It also includes specific help for dealing with fear of death and fear of vomiting. It is based on proven CBT techniques. Praise for "Overcoming Obsessive Compulsive Disorder": '"Overcoming Obsessive Compulsive Disorder" is an affordable and highly recommended read' - "The Psychologist".
