AWESOME BOOK!! VERY INFORMATIVE AND INSIGHTFUL, DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO ANYONE DEALING WITH NEGATIVE THOUGHTS AND/OR EMOTIONS!

An excellent introduction to CBT

've been fighting with depression and anxieties for 20 years - ever since I was a kid - and my ACE score is 5 (ACE Study is not mentioned in this book, though). After systematically reading through this book I learned skills - however obvious they might have seemed - that help me almost daily fight with worries, insecurities, irritation, broken heart, abandonment issues, panicking over nothing, and all those other forms of anxiety. A good book. Short. To the point. Sometimes you might feel like it's speaking in a very simple way, but I think the point is that we all act like children sometimes, and stubbornly refuse the most obvious advises.
