A Sunday Times bestseller that redefines anxiety as an addiction--and gives you the tools to finally break the cycle.
Why do we stay anxious even when we desperately want peace? In Addicted to Anxiety, Sunday Times bestselling author and psychotherapist Owen O'Kane reveals the hidden truth: anxiety isn't just a feeling--it's a habit, one we may be unconsciously addicted to. Drawing on over 25 years of clinical experience, O'Kane explains how anxious thought loops, emotional avoidance, and a subconscious belief in the "safety" of worry can keep us stuck. The good news? Once you understand the mechanism, you can break it.
