Re: Claire Weekes???
Have to say that Weekes books are an excellent grounding in anxiety and how anxiety effects the body etc but that they are not really geared towards health anxiety as such. She does mention a concept known as bewiderment which sort of encompasses health anxiety and how it can develop but that is about as far as she goes.
When I first read her books I was almost concerned as she mainly spoke about anxiety in the traditional mainfestation of panic attacks etc and this was just not how my anxiety presented. Don't get me wrong, her research and her advice our fantastic nuggets of wisdom and certaintly point you in the right direction in dealing with anxiety and also physical symptoms but there are better options for specific health anxiety issues.
