Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
Thank you Lady, Poems and Betty. :)
I'm a big nerd when it comes to this sort of thing so it's been really fun to do and has kept me occupied. It's also nice to know it's of use to others. If there is anything that you feel needs changing or would like to see added please let me know, Thanks, SF :smile2: |

Cheers mate, I have added them to the list.
I might look into buying them as well, they sound like good books. |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
I would recommend " Change for the better" which is a book about Cognitive Analytic Therapy in easy to understand terms.

Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
@superfred
This is a great book for anxiety. Im glad you have ir in your list. A support worker lent it to me a couple of months back. I only had it a week so Im going to purchase it. Superb. Its a about tackling anxiety from different angles. Mental, physical, spiritual approaches etc... Excellent. The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook by Edmund J Bourne |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
I started reading a book called Freeing Yourself from Anxiety and so far its been really helpful. Its all about being realistic, seeing negative thoughts for what they really are and changing them before they cause you to feel anxious.

Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
The Gillian Butler book is a revelation. I thought it was just me like this:laughing::laughing: That's what comes of being an introvert/loner, which I'm trying to give up!

Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
Thanks for taking the time to post this extensive list Superfred.
Another website I've come across is social phobia world. |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
as a nice quick visual guide and a site other people can add the bookshelves they've read is:
http://www.shelfari.com/o1514707695/shelf I post this only for comprehensiveness sake. Not that I'm any clearer in the muddy water from reading these. But they've helped. |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
Can I recommend Managing Anxiety with CBT for Dummies?
I got this book out of my local library and while I'm not a fan of any book that calls its readers "dummies" I found it to be very user-friendly and easy to work through. (Does that make me a dummy? :eekpurple ) |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
I would like to add a book, Hardwiring Happiness by Dr Rick Hanson. It is a very clear guide to the neuroscience behind negative and positive thoughts and simple tools for increasing the positive and being more graceful with the negative.

Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
https://incluzy.com/benefits-employi...iduals-autism/ - a non-profit website, which helps individuals with disabilities obtain a job.
The main goal of this guide is to help promote the values and attributes autistic individuals can bring to a business or organisation, that may not have been initially obvious. There are over 700,000 individuals living in the UK with autism, however, it is estimated that only 15% of those have jobs. For businesses, this is a massively untapped market, that the author of this guide would like to shine a positive light on. |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
Given my job, I just wanted to mention Reading Well Books on Prescription: https://readingagency.org.uk/adults/...resources.html They're a list of books recommended by health experts, I recognise some of the titles from this list from the list on the original post of this thread. You may get "prescribed" a title from the list if you're seeking professional help. There is also Shelf Help - a collection aimed at teens. All available from your local library. Even if you can't go to your local library then it provides a useful list of quality, recommended texts that may help.

Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.
This book gets one of the best Amazon UK reviews I have seen:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Overcome-So...gateway&sr=8-1 I'm reading it right now. It takes an approach to the background behind SA that I have not yet seen anywhere else. |
Re: Self-Help Book List & Other Resources.

This lady is a therapist and has done many interesting vids, including stuff on SA. |
