But if your anxiety persists even after doctors tell you they can find nothing wrong, it may be hurting you more than it helps. You might research medical conditions on the internet, exercise constantly, or check your body for signs of disease, all the while growing more and more consumed by worry. And that worry has consequences of its own--the never-ending cycle of anxiety can all but destroy your quality of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you're ready to stop being overly preoccupied with fears about your health, \u003cb\u003e Overcoming Health Anxiety\u003c\/b\u003e offers an evidence-based approach called cognitive behavioral therapy to help you get started. You'll learn the difference between people with health anxiety and hypochondriacs, find the root of your health anxiety, and challenge illness-related thoughts. In time, you'll drastically reduce your fears and enjoy a life free from recurring health-related worries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis book has been awarded The Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies Self-Help Seal of Merit -- an award bestowed on outstanding self-help books that are consistent with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles and that incorporate scientifically tested strategies for overcoming mental health difficulties.
