  This review is from: Anxiety: Coping With Someone Who Has Anxiety (Anxious Spouse, Friend or Family Member Book 1) (Kindle Edition)

  This book is about coping with a friend or loved one that has anxiety. It includes ideas to help ease your obsessions and be more thankful for your life and the people around you.

  There are additional suggestions on how to handle certain situations, including times when your plans don’t turn out exactly as you expected them to, situations where you must be around other people, and even to help you grasp that you don’t need to try to fix someone’s problem yourself.

  There is also information on understanding when to pick your battles and let some things go, as well as explanations behind the science of anxiety. There are even different types of treatment options discussed.

  I think this book would be a great read for anyone that has a loved one that suffers from anxiety, or thinks that they know someone that suffers from a disorder of that type.

  It can definitely be difficult to help people with anxiety and it is even worse when they are close to you in some way. People with anxiety tend to shut out others. I am very glad that the author early on makes one of the best points in the entire ebook: Do not let your life revolve around that person. Speaking from both having anxiety and having friends with severe anxiety, too much contact, though it seems like a good idea is bad. To take care of this, communication is absolutely key to solving that problem. Let the person tell you how much you can be around instead of taking it upon yourself to always be there for them. And though this shouldn’t be said, do not try to fix them; it will make them even more anxious.
  In all, this ebook was a good and helpful tool to help dealing with anxious people.

  Unfortunately anxiety not only affects the person experiencing it but it also affects those around them. Anxiety has its own way of making everyone worry and panic. It is very hard to see someone go through an anxiety attack and not know how to help them. I think the hardest thing of all is to separate yourself from the situation. People tend to get so involved in the situation that they are not making things better they are only perpetuating the attack.

  This book has numerous examples of how to detach without making the person feel they are not important to you. Communication is key and this book gives you the tools and tips to help you still be involved and care but keep your health in check as well. If you are not well you cannot be a good support person for your family/friend experiencing anxiety issues.
