Great Advice

  • Jan 28, 2010
Rating:

Though I'm sure we would all love to be able to afford a shrink not all of us can. This book does not have all the answers to managing stress but it at least helps. It gives some very useful real life advice on how to properly manage stress during times when you most need it. It acknowledges road blocks like people not understand your situation, bosses who want you to change for the company rather then have the company change for you, and some of your own personal struggles. The book mentions that for some text will not be enough to handle your problem, and indeed some people will need counseling even if this book is purchased. Never-the-less, this is an interesting read and is at least a starting point to getting the help you need on managing your stress. Though this book singles out people with Asperger's Syndrom, it provides valuable advice even to those who just have normal stress related problems.
