The Woman Who Cracked the Anxiety Code: the extraordinary life of Dr Claire Weekes

Judith Hoare

4.9/5 (34534 ratings)

Description:The true story of a little-known mental health pioneer who revolutionised how we see the defining problem of our era: anxiety.Panic, depression, sorrow, guilt, disgrace, obsessions, sleeplessness, low confidence, loneliness, agoraphobia … The international bestseller Self-Help For Your Nerves, first published in 1962 and still in print, has helped tens of millions of readers to overcome all of these, and continues to do so. But when it was first released, its diminutive author, Dr Claire Weekes, wasn’t taken seriously. Seen as underqualified and overly populist by the medical establishment, she was dismissed even as thousands of letters from readers poured in, thanking her for helping to improve — and in some cases to save — their lives.Notable for her insight into the anxiety state and the effectiveness of her techniques for addressing it, Dr Weekes’ work provided an alternative to the brutal, invasive, and expensive treatments that were popular at the time. For a handful of dollars, Weekes offered treatment unavailable anywhere else. Few understood she was a serious scholar whose understanding also came from first-hand experience: in order to do her work, she had had to overcome a crippling anxiety disorder herself.At a crucial moment in history, Dr Weekes’ work showed people around the world that they were not alone in their suffering, and addressed an epidemic hiding in plain sight — one that remains an urgent problem in our society today. This book is the first to tell her story.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
