Worriers will find relief here." -Janis Abrahms Spring, Ph.D., author ofAfter the AffairandHow Can I Forgive You? "I heartily recommend this book to everybody who is worried . . . and that includes practically all of us. Eminent psychologist Dr. Robert L. Leahy has designed an easy-to-follow program pinpointing unproductive worries across the broad spectrum of relationships, work, health, and finances. In elegant style, he shows how to neutralize and even eliminate them." -Aaron T. Beck, M.D., president of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research and university professor emeritus of psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania "An excellent book. The self-assessment questionnaires narrow down each reader's personal domains of worry, giving them a leg up on making life-altering changes, and the easy-to-understand step-by-step procedures for overcoming worry provide useful tools that are research-based." -Monica Ramirez Basco, Ph.D., author ofNever Good Enoughand coauthor ofGetting Your Life Back "Clear and easy to follow . . . like having Dr. Leahy, one of the foremost psychologists in the world, as your personal therapist.

Dattilio, Ph.D., A.B.P.P., department of psychiatry, Harvard Medical School "Engagingly and persuasively [Leahy] coaxes self-tormentors to have mercy on themselves. Rather than offering palliatives, like 'be more positive,' or 'try to get your mind off it,' he acknowledges that many chronic worriers-including the subset he calls 'defensive pessimists'-want to worry, and are superstitious that, if they fail to worry, they will jinx themselves.
