Publisher's summary
Is your anxiety kicking your teen's butt? Are they tired of boring, long self-help books that do anything but help? Are they annoyed by suggestions that show the author doesn't really get anxiety?
I get it. I also get anxiety. I have lived it and so have the thousands of kids I have helped in my therapy practice. Until you have lived it, you will never understand anxiety's insidious moves. Anxiety Sucks! is short and to the point. You are welcome. Have them listen to it. Practice it. Repeat.
Kids don't want long, boring books on anxiety. In my practice parents will often ask for book suggestions. I provide them. They buy them. The kids never listen to them. Trust me, I know. I ask the kids. I finally decided to write my own book that is short, to the point and offers a death blow to the anxiety dictator living in their head. A book I know kids will be able to get through in one or two sittings. A book that will teach kids how their little dictator rules their mind and tricks them into making their anxiety grow. And finally, a book that will help them develop mad skills to counterattack their dictator and show him who is boss.
Every kid being bullied by anxiety should be armed with the skills this book provides. Every parent raising an anxious kid should listen to this and gain insight into what their kids are going through each day.

Breaking Free of Child Anxiety and OCD is the first and only book to provide a completely parent-based treatment program for child and adolescent anxiety. Parents will learn how to alleviate their children's anxiety by changing the way they themselves respond to their children's symptoms - importantly, parents are not required to impose changes on their children's behavior. Instead, parents are shown how to replace their own accommodating behaviors with supportive responses that demonstrate both acceptance of children's difficulties and confidence in their ability to cope.

With clear, research-informed explanations alongside illuminating, real-life examples, The Emotional Lives of Teenagers gives parents the information they need to steady their teens through the bumpy yet transformational journey into adulthood.

Many of us know we're putting too much pressure on our kids - and on ourselves - but how do we get off this crazy train? We want our children to succeed, to be their best, and to do their best, but what if they are not on board? A few years ago, Ned Johnson and Bill Stixrud started noticing the same problem from different angles: even high-performing kids were coming to them acutely stressed and lacking any real motivation. Many complained that they had no real control over their lives.

Being “shook” is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne; it’s his mission to overcome. While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by anxieties - fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a worse husband; and, ultimately, fear of failure. Shook One chronicles his journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held back from your potential.

Up to 40% of people consider themselves shy. You might say you're introverted or awkward, or that you're fine around friends but just can't speak up in a meeting or at a party. Maybe you're usually confident but have recently moved or started a new job, only to feel isolated and unsure. If you get nervous in social situations - meeting your partner's friends, public speaking, standing awkwardly in the elevator with your boss - you've probably been told, "Just be yourself!" But that's easier said than done - especially if you're prone to social anxiety.

Story
Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves.

Story
What could possibly be “lucky” about addiction? Absolutely nothing, thought Laura McKowen when drinking brought her to her knees. As she puts it, she “kicked and screamed . . . wishing for something - anything - else” to be her issue. The people who got to drink normally, she thought, were so damn lucky. But in the midst of early sobriety, when no longer able to anesthetize her pain and anxiety, she realized that she was actually the lucky one. Lucky to feel her feelings, live honestly, really be with her daughter, change her legacy.

Practical tips for this worried mom
Thank you! I am so much more hopeful I can help my teens because of your book! I listened in its entirety and am prepared to invite my 2 teens to listen along with me. I know they may resist at first, but this audible is so engaging and the characters the narrator uses are so relatable that I'm really hopeful my kids will join me in begging our journey to demystify their anxieties!

Just what the doctor ordered...literally.
A counselor recently recommended this for my daughter. I listened to it first. And I must say I'm impressed and challenged!!! Yes, I'm the genetic component. And, sadly, the one who fed the dictator the most. But we are fighting back!!! And the tools in this book really give me hope that we will win. I'll be sharing with others. But my daughter first.

Great for parents too
The dictator is powerful on my spouse side, and I am unfamiliar with the tactics and experience my spouse and children feel. This book helped me understand and gave a common language for us when the dictator tries to over take them.

Anxiety Sucks, Rocks !
This book makes the topic of teen anxiety SO approachable. It points out specific facts surrounding anxiety, but even better it provides guidance and tools that teens and families can talk about and implement. Her reading style is upbeat and fun, but takes the time to handle this serious topic.

Creepy performance
I wanted to listen to this before I gave it to my 14-year-old daughter. First of all within the first 60 seconds she refers to your anxiety as a dictator or dick. Huge turn off! Not what I want my 14-year-old to be hearing. She also says you can blame your parents for your anxiety and while I get what’s she trying to get at (heredity), it’s poorly communicated. Third, her voice is very creepy throughout the book. She speaks in a low spooky voice that’s just weird and distracting.
