Product Details

Discover hope and conquer fear with My Age of Anxiety. A must-read paperback that delves into the search for inner peace. Available now on Ubuy Ireland.
  • A bravely intimate and dazzlingly comprehensive history (The New York Times Book Review) of efforts by scientists, philosophers, and writers to understand anxiety—from an acclaimed journalist with his own longstanding battle with this often misunderstood affliction.  Drawing on his own experience with anxiety, Scott Stossel presents a moving and revelatory account of a condition that affects some 40 million Americans. Stossel offers an intimate and authoritative history. We discover the well-known who have struggled with the condition, as well as the afflicted generations of Stossel's own family. Revealing anxiety's myriad manifestations and the anguish it causes, he also surveys the countless psychotherapies, medications, and often outlandish treatments that have been developed to relieve it. Stossel vividly depicts anxiety’s human toll—its crippling impact, its devastating power to paralyze. He also explores how individual sufferers—including himself—have managed and controlled symptoms. By turns erudite and compassionate, amusing and inspirational, My Age of Anxiety is the essential account of a pervasive affliction.

Anxiety Editorial Review

  • ubuy Ireland

My Age of Anxiety: Fear, Hope, Dread, and the Search for Peace of Mind explores the intertwining threads of mental distress, contrasting biological origins with philosophical inquiries. Scott Stossel's candid examination offers a historical overview of anxiety treatments and challenges the prevailing narratives of the medical community. Drawing from his own experiences with panic attacks, he argues that anxiety might be more about the human condition than an isolated illness. Through this lens, Stossel invites readers to confront the fundamental crises of existence—ageing, loss, and purpose—encouraging a deeper understanding of anxiety instead of solely seeking relief through medication. His insights resonate with those who feel isolated in their struggles, providing both comfort and validation across complex emotional landscapes.
