Synopsis

How do you make sense of worry?

On the surface, anxiety and panic seem to make no sense at all. But if you dig a little deeper, you can understand why we need some anxiety to survive and how it can escalate to become a problem. And once you learn that it really does make sense, you can learn how to overcome it!

Written by GP Dr Martin Brunet, who has over 30 years of professional experience and is well known online for his popular mental health videos, Your Worry Makes Sense explores the logical basis for the common experiences of both anxiety and burnout.

Accompanied by Hannah Robinson's witty illustrations, Dr Brunet uses powerful visual metaphors that help you unpack your anxiety, you'll discover...

- Why anxiety can spiral out of control
- Practical strategies to help you manage it
- How to navigate and understand your triggers
- How to identify and manage burnout, a common cause of both anxiety and depression
- How you can begin to break harmful cycles and implement effective techniques to regain control of your mental health
- How your breathing pattern can become disordered when you are anxious, and what to do about it
- How to fix common sleep problems
- The role of both talking therapy and medication in managing anxiety
