Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Anxiety the Tormenting Fear
Mary Robinson · 2013
54/100
👎 Skip It
Mary Robinson's first-person account of two decades of anxiety is genuine and compassionate, and the integration of both faith and medical perspectives is a real strength for readers who want that blend. But with no clinical grounding, light editorial oversight, and virtually no documented reception, this is a thin resource compared to what's available in the anxiety self-help space. Readers in crisis deserve something with more vetted support.
