Ingredients: 2 cups anxiety expert, 2 cups experienced psychotherapist, and 2 1/4 cups secret comedian. Step 1: Mix all ingredients until smooth, leaving in characteristic quirks. Step 2: Bake for several months and remove from oven to reveal one of the most unique self-help books on anxiety that you'll likely ever encounter. Drs. Hatcher and Willard not only know anxiety inside and out through their decades' long clinical experience, but they can't help but relay laugh-out-loud anecdotes of living anxiety-peppered lives. This would be a funny, de-stigmatizing memoir if they stopped there. But these anxiety gurus provide the reader with sound, evidence-based coping tactics for our crazy world that are designed to regulate the skittish brain, calm the anxious mind, and de-stress the nervous body. A must read for virtually all living humans. -Dr. Matt Hersh Hatcher and Willard's Anxiety Hacks is a welcome addition to the anxiety help-seeker's toolkit. With shame, pain and stigma being so much a part of the anxiety struggle, this book's irreverent, fun angle helps readers gain the separation and perspective necessary to see anxiety, without being lost within it. -Dr. Mitch Abblett
