I'm looking for a biography of an anxiety sufferer that talks about how they overcame or managed their anxiety. Preferably a biography of a well-known person that can easily be identified with. My partner is an anxiety sufferer and would like a biography that might inspire her. Appreciate any advice you might have a good book. Thank you.

Hi,
If you want a book to inspire and amuse you could try "What Women Want" by Nelly Thomas. Although it not specifically about overcoming anxiety I believe she does claim to be a sufferer. At one point in the book I seem to remember her describing anxiety as the feeling that something big is about to happen and your at the middle of it. I am glad your post has reminded me of it. I think I might read it again. Cheers.
