Description

Google Trends shows that searches for 'Anxiety' have vastly increased over the last few years with over 1.2 million searches a month.

One of the most popular therapies for anxiety is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and this serves as an influence for this page. While CBT is complex and has many aspects to it, one key tenet is that it may help an anxious person to pinpoint unhelpful beliefs and behaviors and replace them with more objective facts and observations.

While this page is not intended to provide any kind of clinical or diagnostic support (and should not be marketed that way), it could be a very helpful addition to a guided journal for people who are dealing with anxiety, especially if paired with journal pages and a habit tracker.

Mood tracking could also be very valuable in a book like this and daily or weekly planner pages could be customized to have space for tracking daily or hourly moods.

Another way to use this page is to tackle particular types of fear or anxiety, such as social anxiety, fear of flying or agoraphobia.

Simple content that could be added to this book could include 'grounding techniques' or 'coping techniques' for anxiety. NIMH, a Federal government agency has some information here, most of which is in the public domain: https: //www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/anxiety-disorders/index.shtml
