Sample Book Insights: #1 The therapist knows that the symptoms are helpful clues that point to the place of injury or neglect. The symptoms are helpful because they indicate that change must occur. #2 Anxiety is a feeling of dread, agitation, or foreboding associated with a danger that does not exist in the present moment. It can be defined as a general and pervasive sense of dis-ease without an identified source. #3 The fight-or-flight response, which is the primary mechanism of the anxiety system, was originally designed to keep us safe in the jungle. But today, it often manifests as anxiety about safety everywhere we look. #4 Anxiety is typically manifested in the form of intrusive thoughts, symptoms in the body, and compulsive behaviors. It is important to differentiate between the symptoms and the meaning we assign to those symptoms.
