Anxiety is all too often a silent battle and epidemic. It’s a journey…with an end. If you’re reading this as an anxiety sufferer, you will get there. The feelings can be a melting pot of despair, panic, paranoia, exhaustion, confusion, anger, failure and loneliness, but the best thing you will ever do is ask for help. Many, many people have the same thoughts and feelings, so you are definitely not alone.In this first volume of Words for the Restless, Claire S. Ellis shares an inspiring, poignant and comforting collection of quotes and poetry stemming from her own journey with anxiety.“One of the core antidotes is to always do something you love, and writing this collection gave me that outlet. Having the courage to share these words with the outside world has been a challenge, but knowing they can touch and move others fills me with purpose and joy. This is for you and me, but please spread far and wide. Remember, you really are amazing.”— Claire S. Ellis
