Reviewed by Sandy Costanza D’Youville College, Buffalo, NYWhat if your mind was constantly in motion, constantly questioning—like a hamster on a spinning wheel who can’t get off? This is what is described by some who suffer from an anxiety disorder. Anxiety is essential for a productive life but high anxiety, on the other hand, interferes with everyday existance. Social Anxiety Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Panic Disorder are all explored in this DVD with descriptions of symptoms and treatment modalities.
Coping, getting help and “getting to a better you” are all explored in a VERY positive manner making this a valuable video. There is help for a better life without levels of anxiety which control your life. Also included is a pdf Teacher’s Guide.
