WOMEN WHO WORRY TOO MUCH : HOW TO STOP WORRY AND ANXIETY FROM RUINING RELATIONSHIPS, WORK AND FUN
Book ID/图书代码： 09700005B06387
English Summary/英文概要： Women are more likely than men to develop anxiety disorders, a fact which researchers have attributed to a range of biological, psychological, and cultural factors. This predispostion inclines women to worry more than men about things like social problems, work, finances-even about worry itself, a phenomenon psychologists call meta-worry. The goal of this book is to help readers control excessive worry by learning to perceive threats more accurately and to stop focusing on things that are unlikely to happen.
Following an introduction by noted psychologist Michelle Craske that explores the reasons women worry more than men, the book addresses the fundamentals of worry: what it is, how it differs from anxiety, and how it can develop into a chronic state of mind. The book offers strategies for overcoming worry that include monitoring personal worry triggers, breaking worry-provoking habits, and avoiding avoidance-a major aggravating factor for all anxiety disorders. From it, you’ll learn to use mindfulness techniques to avoid ruminating on the past or the future and how to use progressive relaxation to cope with worrisome situations.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 現代婦女更有可能比男子會表現出焦慮症，研究人員已經把其歸結為是由一系列的生物、心理、和文化因素的現實原因所引發而來。這一現代病症的比重，更傾向於婦女的原因，是現代女性比男性更為關注於像社會問題，工作、財政狀況甚至於擔心自身的各類問題，一位傑出的心理學家將這種病症稱之為元擔優症。本書的目的就是幫助讀者，通過學習更為準確地威脅感知，來控制過度焦慮，並讓患者停止自己對於不太可能發生的事情的過度關注。
通過著名的心理學家 蜜雪兒•克拉斯克的詳細分析，探討了當代女性為何比男性更為憂心的緣由，這本書詳細向您講解了這些憂慮的基本原理：這是一種什麼樣的病症，這種憂慮如何不同於焦慮症，以及這種憂慮是如何發展成為一種慢性的精神狀態。本書為患者克服憂慮陰影提供了相對應的策略，其中包括監測個人憂慮的觸發誘因，阻斷誘發自身憂慮的習慣，對於所有的過度焦慮患者，不要刻意地去迴避會加重憂慮的主要因素。從書中，您將學習使用正確的意念技巧，避免自己總是糾纏於過去或未來，並從中學會如何使用漸進式放鬆方法去應對令人擔憂的情況。(Sandy)
