Hardcore Self Help: F--k Anxiety

By: Robert Duff

Narrated by: Robert Duff

Hardcore Self Help: F--k Anxiety is for those of us who find the prospect of reading a traditional self-help book to be way too boring. How are you supposed to make positive changes in your life if the book itself feels like a chore? This audiobook is definitely not a chore.

In Hardcore Self Help: F--k Anxiety, I talk to you like a friend. There is lots of swearing and humor but also loads of helpful and actionable information. You learn about anxiety and how to find the weapons within yourself to slay it for good.

The audiobook is performed and recorded by me, so you get every intended inflection!

Liked the book until he diminished OCPD

I generally liked his take on self help but I think he may lack some experience in actually dealing with patients.
He started diminishing OCPD by saying that it's just someone who is "finicky" where as OCD is different and is a serious disorder that is a legitimate cause of anxiety.
Coming from someone who has suffered from OCPD for decades, I can tell you the anxiety that arises from someone moving things around in your room, or from being super late to finish a task or email because it's not "right" yet, is very real and debilitating sometimes. To the point where I need to take an Ativan to stop obsessing over my thoughts. OCPD is as real as a disorder as OCD, they are just different from each other. At least he got that right.

Love this

I am going through some learning on how to deal with anxiety that was hiding within me and Covid brought out making my life dark.... this book has giving me more hope and knowledge... i am not a pill taker and try pills and made me worse than better so I am trying to get healthy in a more natural way. This book had open myself to get better and I will share with those around me that are also suffering from anxiety including my wife. Wish you had in Spanish I’ll be a great book for my sister suffering anxiety but can’t speak the language. Thank you

very easy read

I really enjoyed listening to this. makes you realize that you really arent crazy. a lot of helpful tips. definately a must read for mature audiences with anxiety.

Cuts past the filler and right into the help

this book gets right to it and not only helpful but motivating you to kick anxiety ass.

Wonderful!

Easy to follow. Highly recommend for those struggling with anxiety in daily life. Practical advice.

Quick & concise

Very good information, easy to digest, lots of tips, very funny. Definitely recommend for anyone struggling with anxiety or those close to individuals struggling with it.

Lighten the Anxiety Load

This book is a great intro to understanding anxiety but isn’t super in-depth. This is to be expected since it’s such a short book and is perfect for someone looking for a way to find out if they want to delve deeper into the world of self help. It’s also more like listening to a podcast which was enjoyable for me but may not be some peoples cup of tea. Overall I think it’s a good intro to self help for readers who want a better understanding of anxiety, coping exercises, and some humor to lighten the load.

Pretty informative

I liked the book thought it was written in a down to earth less intimidating dr talk approach.

Wish there was more!!

Looking for something to the point & not boring?

If you are looking for something that is straight forward and too the point and NOT boring... this is the book for you. It doesn't give you pointless information that you're not interested in. It gives you just what you need.

Thank You!

This book was short and sweet and to the point. My big take away from this was the breathing exercise (4,7,8). I have used this multiple times in the last week and it is truly a miracle for me. It reduces the anxious feeling in my chest within minutes!
