Stress management for dummies by Laurence R. Krack 5 Stars

This book is the best by far for anyone suffering with anxiety. The tools presented work. I purchase this book for my friends who are struggling. Not a book to read cover to cover. Find a subject and practice the content. This book will change your life.

Perfect by Christine (Michigan, USA) 5 Stars

Received item on time and as advertised. Used in and out of class, very helpful book.

Great for Groups!!! by J. Sinclair (Atchison, KS United States) 5 Stars
July 04, 2008
I am a youth psychosocial group leader and I was looking for a book that I could use with my middle school and high school students. Even though this book is geared toward adults, much of the information can be useful for older youth, especially those kids who have had to grow up so fast due to their home environment. At the end of every chapter I would create either a jeopardy game or have them play a wheel-of-fortune/hangman type game to review the essential points of each section. The information was also helpful to me in a sense that it's good to remind yourself to practice stress management.

Another great book for Dummies by L. Gaffney 5 Stars
March 09, 2008
This book is a great resource if you are not very good at stress management. It covers a lot of good ways to deal with stress in your life. It follows the same easy approach to the subject> Just like all For Dummies books along with some humor thrown in for good measure. In my opinion it is a great book for anyone that wants to learn how to deal with stress the right way.

Depression for Dummies

"What do you have to be depressed about?" Bet you've heard that one before. Or how about, "You're depressed? Just get over it!" Easier said than done, right? Or here's a favorite, "They have a pill for that now, you know."

Unfortunately, such naïve armchair psychology rarely works for someone suffering from the very real plight of depression. All it does is seek to trivialize depression and characterize depressed people as "whiners" who have nothing better to do than to "complain...
