These days, anxiety is simply part of the human experience. Part journal, part colouring book, part weird coping mechanisms, and part compendium of soothing facts, The Big Activity Book for Anxious People will be an outlet for anyone who wants to take a break from reality, laugh through her fears, and realise with every page that she is not alone—and to help her figure out what to do when it's 3 AM and she's wide awake worrying about whether she cc'ed the right "Bob" on that email. (Probably.)

Activities include:

Fun Facts about Ageing!
Public Speaking: A Diagram
Your Hotel Room Carpet: A Petri Dish of Horrors
Obscure Diseases You Probably Don't Have
Zen Mantras For The Anxiously Inclined

Reid and Williams want everyone to remember that they're in good company: anxious people are some of the funniest and most interesting and creative humans on the planet. (They know, because they are two of them.)
