Tim Clare has suffered from anxiety and panic attacks for over a decade. At their worst, his attacks would see him curled on the floor, screaming to his wife for help. When they became more than he and his family could manage, Tim made a promise to himself – he would try everything he could to get better, every method and medicine.

In Coward, Tim Clare explores all the possible treatments for anxiety, from anti-depressants to hypnosis, running to extreme diets. He interviews experts and becomes a guinea pig, testing their methods on himself. At the end of a year of many ups and downs, Tim discovers what helps him (and what doesn’t), and what might help others. Most of all, he comes to rethink anxiety and encourages all of us to do the same.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"In a space crowded with arrogant, dogmatic self-help, this is a story which actually delivers something useful. It's a meditation on the science and purpose of anxiety, its function and the disability it causes. It's reassuring and funny in equal measure" (DR CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN)
"A rigorous, sceptical and jolly account of anxiety, its causes, and how it might be cured"
"This is the best book I've ever read on anxiety, health and being an anxious person on this planet . . . [a] gift of a book" (EMMA GANNON)
"A clever blend of memoir, science and useful advice . . . what really resonates is his honest account of his own panic attacks and what it is like to try to come off sertraline . . . a brave and moving book – one that offers lots of practical help"
"Fascinating, thought-provoking, vulnerable and generous, Coward is an important book. I wish everyone would read it" (CATHY RENTZENBRINK)
"Funny, fascinating, brilliant and brave, Coward isn't a self-help guide to beating anxiety – it's far more valuable than that" (MELISSA HARRISON)
"Such a tonic. Funny, honest, moving – meticulously researched. I’m learning loads. I think it will help a lot of people" (NATHAN FILER)
"Tim Clare may call himself a coward but this brave and beautiful memoir proves he’s anything but. This isn’t a manifesto or self-help book – instead Coward is a darkly comic, deftly researched and devastatingly moving meditation on the pain and self-loathing of anxiety and the redemptive power of love to help us change our minds. This is a must-read for all of us trying to stay sane in an increasingly distressing world" (SUSANNAH CAHALAN)

Thoroughly enjoyed this book, it was above all relatable and the humor with which it is delivered helped me laugh and cry my way through it. A refreshing change from the self help books I usually read, I was impressed with the level of research and alternative ideas and approaches tried and tested.

Funny, relatable and thoroughly well researched

The author writes from the heart whilst at the same time referring to mountains of data. A raw tale which will be fascinating to anyone with or interested in anxiety. The perfect millennial book. It's read beautifully and with obvious passion.

Deeply personal, universally applicable

I love Tim’s writing and his performance of his own work was excellent.

The subject has been brilliantly researched and presented in a narrative non-fiction form which I found engaging and educational.

Thank you, Tim for this great piece of work.
Easily the best written and researched book on the subject. BR

This is an absolutely cracking book. It's not your conventional self-help book - rather, it's a personal investigation into current and past therapeutic interventions for anxiety sufferers, their potential, and their pitfalls. It's interesting, informative, clear, concise, and sprinkled with enough personal anecdotes to keep it personal. Also, I have a background in genetics, and the explanation about the real meaning of "inheritable conditions" is the best I've ever seen in a work for laypeople.

If you want a self-help book, this isn't it. If you want a book about what help is out there, however, I don't think you can do better.

Informative, engaging, and helpful
