The Worry Trick: How Your Brain Tricks You Into Expecting the Worst and What You Can Do about It by David A. Carbonell

4.0

The biggest takeaway was that I finally felt seen. Like someone actually gets it...

The author looks at treating worry with some ways I hadn't heard of. This book also focuses more on responding to worry in the moment rather than prevention, which I appreciated. We all know the typical methods to prevent anxiety and worry, so it was nice to hear something different. More tools for the toolbox, if you will. He does mention meditation and breathing, but also gives some different advice like writing your worries into limericks and haikus, or singing funny rhyme songs about it.

Overall, as a chronic worrier, I appreciated the additional tips.
