从有与特定类型强迫症作斗争的第一手经验的人那里获得实际而深刻的焦虑缓解和安慰。
发现焦虑是什么样子。Kirstin Pagacz讲述了一个引人入胜的故事，讲述了她是如何发现自己的疾病的。高中时，她患有厌食症，是强迫症常见的“阴影综合征”的物质滥用者。到了成年，她凭借坚韧不拔的毅力保住了工作和朋友。帮助的形式是NPR上一则关于强迫症的公共服务公告，时间恰到好处。最后，她的病情得到了确认。
了解焦虑的感觉。“就像一只最卑鄙、最疯狂的猴子绕着我的头跑，不停地想办法咬我。”Kirsten Pagacz就是这样向她的治疗师描述她的强迫症的。在学习了如何克服她特定类型的强迫症后，帕加兹想与你分享她的见解，希望你能消除那些干扰性的想法，克服焦虑，过上更好的生活。
