Addicted to anxiety

Owen O'Kane

Have you ever considered that you might be addicted to anxiety? In this groundbreaking book, author and psychotherapist Owen O'Kane explores how we all unwittingly build habits around our anxiety. This, he argues, is how we become addicted - the behaviours and thought patterns that help us feel safe in the short term ultimately serve to perpetuate it. Put simply, we get hooked. The answer? Break the cycle. 'Addicted to Anxiety' will help you understand your anxiety from the perspective of addiction, identifying your triggers and learning how to break your habits so you can actively replace them with new, more productive behaviours for a calmer, happier life.
