| | I really recommend this book if you suffer from anxiety/depression, its CBT based but you can take your time working on things - challeging what you think/believe so that you don't spiral thoughts and feelings around. Gain control of your thoughts and feelings, and reassure your mind with calm thinking when needed. |
|
| | I also really recommend this book if you suffer from social-anxiety, its CBT based but the main thing to learn is to just not judge yourself/others in social situations. Social Anxiety is fear of being judged, so if you don't start up the judgements then your mind is calmer and able to focus better on listening or fitting in socially. |

|
| | I recommend this book if you wish to understand how people really work, what drivers them, how we all have an inner chimp that has to compete with other people's inner chimps. Helps you understand its best to manage your own chimp as best you can regardless of the actions of others. |
