Coward: Why We Get Anxious & What We Can Do About It (Paperback) - Tim Clare

Blending memoir, self-help and science, and offering practical help, Tim Clare asks us to rethink anxiety

After a decade of living with panic attacks and anxiety, Tim Clare made a promise to himself - he would try everything he could to get better, every method and medicine.

His year of treatments took him from anti-depressants to hypnosis, running to extreme diets, ice baths to faecal transplants. At the end of it he discovers what helps him (and what doesn't), and what might help others. Most of all, he comes to rethink anxiety and encourages all of us to do the same.
