Publisher's Synopsis
You don't need to let your moods, thoughts, and behaviors keep you from reaching your fullest potential.
Making friends, excelling in school, having a job, dating, and many other responsibilities and obligations fill the teenage years. For a teen who suffers from general anxiety, social anxiety, or shyness, all these components can become incredibly overwhelming. The easiest thing to do is simply avoid what is causing you anxiety and fear. But avoiding all these things can leave you isolated and disappointed.
You might be thinking that your anxiety is just something you need to live with. That no one believes the issues you are struggling with because of your anxiety. You might even think that this is just normal because you are a teen. Your teenage years do not have to be filled with anxiety and avoidance!
What if you could quiet the negative thoughts to do more? What if you weren't afraid to be yourself around your peers? What if you understood that you can take control of your thoughts, moods, and behaviors? You can!
This book reveals some effective tools and exercises that are common in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. A form of therapy that focuses on how your thoughts, moods, and behaviors are all concerned and affect one another. These tools can help you live your life with more happiness and success.
