Do you lie awake at night feeling anxious, wondering how the past might have been different? Do you worry about problems you could face in the future? Do you endlessly analyse friends’ comments or fail to move on from minor setbacks? Do you suffer from negative thoughts about your body and health? If you answered ‘yes’ to one or more of these questions you may be an overthinker. In this groundbreaking book, psychologist Susan Nolen-Hoeksema shows you how to break free of overthinking and reclaim your life. She challenges the notion that constantly analysing our emotions is a good thing. She explains why so many women overthink, and offers practical strategies that can be used to escape negative thoughts, gain confidence and control, and avoid future traps. 288pp, 130mm x 197mm, softback, 2003
