Summary Are you truly in danger or has your brain simply ""tricked"" you into thinking you are? In The Worry Trick, psychologist and anxiety expert David Carbonell shows how anxiety hijacks the brain, and offers effective techniques based in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help readers break the cycle of worry-once and for all.
