We live in a crazy world, so much so that you'd have to be crazy to stay sane! Most people feel frequently overwhelmed by stress. Some of us have the inner resources and the support of other people, and so can cope reasonably well, most of the time.
Others among us are not so lucky. For months or even years at a time, people are suffering, at the end of their tether, buckling under the load.
There are many people who react with depression, a life-sapping, draining, self-destructive mood that poisons everything. Others suffer anxiety focused on a variety of issues. And there are those who respond by hitting out at the world, and often at the people they love, the ones they least want to hurt. Of course, most sufferers of one of these reactions frequently feel one or both of the others, in an endless destructive cycle.
Fortunately, help is available. This little book summarizes the results of a great deal of scientific investigation, carried out all over the world, and the author's own extensive clinical experience.

How is this book different?
There are many hundreds of self-help books dealing with the issues of anxiety and anger, with depression and meaninglessness. Some are written by charlatans who make money out of misery and ignorance. Other authors are well-meaning but misled themselves into offering all sorts of techniques with no proven validity.
However, there are many more which, like this book, offer proven and effective techniques. Inevitably, there is a great deal of overlap between Anger and Anxiety and other books that work.
Many
books offered for the 'lay' reader are unnecessarily complex, written
in jargon, intimidating to the average reader.
