LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
A
t the time of going to press we were just entering the third Lockdown and facing enormous pressures on the NHS. However, at least the light at the end of the tunnel was that the vaccines were started to be rolled out. No doubt that this will impact even further on the economy and on everyone’s mental health. During this uncertain time that engulfs us with the coronavirus pandemic, a tsunami of anxiety is continuing to soar. Statistics prove that more than 280 million people worldwide suffer from this debilitating, all consuming and destructive mental illness affecting sufferer and their carers alike, and these statistics are only the ones we are aware of. That’s why the book review on page 25 called ‘Hope with Anxiety’ by Lynn Crilly couldn’t have come at a more timely fashion.
Lynn Crilly is the voice of calm, which is reflected in her non-judgmental, empathetic writing style, allowing this masterpiece to equip sufferers with Anxiety to not only have a truly varied toolkit to be able navigate through their dark episodes, but Hope with Anxiety also serves as an invaluable resource to helps the families, friends and carers of people battling with this soul destroying illness. This very real and wise book, helps the reader gain a true insight into the depth and complexity of this illness and reassures all audiences that ‘they are not alone’. We all need a little HOPE in our lives at the moment and I hope you stay safe and well in these unprecedented times. Richard Milbourn, Editor E: editor@carnahpublications.com
