Self help

Please can anyone recommend and self help books? For someone with anxiety and depression and any tips people use for self care?
It’s for someone who is reluctant to get GP involved initially but is not averse to it after trying some interventions herself.

The life changing magic of not giving a fuck by Sarah Knight

Sane New World by Ruby Wax.

Some really helpful books here too x

Try the untethered soul by Michael Singer. Anyone I've given it to has appreciated it.

A mindfulness app could help.

I read "How to stop worrying and start living" by Dale Carnegie. Great book.
