Anxiety is a normal human response to stressful circumstances. But sometimes anxiety takes more control over us than we would like, and we find ourselves stuck in a cycle of fear and anxious thoughts. That cycle (sometimes called the spiral of anxiety) can leave us feeling overwhelmed, helpless, and exhausted. Teenagers and young adults already have a lot on their minds, with the pressures of keeping up grades, navigating their future, and keeping their social life intact. Anxiety can make life even more difficult. They need to discover that anxiety doesn’t have to own or define them and that they can move beyond the spiral of anxiety. If you know a teenager or young adult looking for help to manage their anxiety, and you’re discouraged by dismissive answers like, “you should just pray more and worry less,” this book is for them.
