Don't Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen (book)

Anxiety often disguises itself as truth — filling your mind with “what ifs” and worst-case scenarios. Don’t Believe Everything You Think is the perfect title because it gently reminds us that thoughts aren’t always facts. It encourages a powerful shift: noticing anxious thoughts without automatically believing them. In just a few words, it delivers one of the most important lessons in managing anxiety — your thoughts don’t have to control you. This is a must read!
