living healthy life

Anxiety and Depression are something that I never pay attention to unless I do good research on them. I had a friend who told me that he had surgery for depression and every time he gets angry, he always takes things the wrong way, and it was hard for me to understand his perspective. The audiobook gave real-life examples to help us understand how to build resilience, which is key to managing anxiety and depression. It's important to stay calm, analyze the situation and try not to overreact to show a good example to help us reach the highest of our abilities to grow wise without any issues.

Very helpful and also good for parents

I have a close friend who suffers anxiety and depression and I understand how difficult it is. As a friend I also feel so overwhelmed, not knowing how to help. I am very glad to come across this audiobook that explain everything about the situation. Anxiety and depression is so common but yet, many people don't actually know what is happening inside the head. I especially find the real-life case studies very relatable, and that will help people know that they are not alone. This audiobook offers a great help to understand what is this all about, and also provide practical solution to handle the situation. Since many teenagers are also suffering from anxiety and depression, I belief this audiobook will also help parents to understand what is going on with their children.

I found this audiobook super helpful in breaking down anxiety and depression without overcomplicating things. This is a fantastic resource for anyone dealing with anxiety or depression, or supporting someone who is. It’s also great for understanding the financial side of mental health care, which isn’t often discussed. Whether you’re struggling or just want to be more informed, this is a must-listen for better mental well-being
