What is “madness” from the perspective of medicine, and where is the line when simple worry about an unlocked door can be considered anxiety?
What’s the difference between a phobia, panic, and generalized anxiety—and how do you cope with each?
What’s the difference between conscious, subconscious, and unconscious actions? Which phobias are most common, and most importantly—how to fight them?
Why can “today just isn’t my day” become a warning sign, and how does genetics increase the chance of developing depression?
What kinds of addictions exist, and what do they all have in common?
Finding an illness in yourself isn’t scary. Far scarier is leaving everything as it is and hoping it will go away on its own. Unfortunately, it won’t—so start your journey by studying your enemy!
This book will help you understand what phobias, anxiety, and depression really are and where to look for the root of the problems. You’ll find questionnaires that help determine whether you or a loved one has one or another disorder, as well as answers to the most popular questions that will help you better understand what these conditions are like and dispel some myths about them.
This book is your first step toward a happy life.
