Too Stressed to Think?
A Teen Guide to Staying Sane When Life Makes You Crazy
Annie Fox, M.Ed., and Ruth Kirschner 
Too Stressed to Think?

When stress has the “survival brain” on overdrive, what happens to the “thinking brain”? How can teens learn to use the mind-body connection to stay cool and make smart choices when the pressure’s on?

This book is packed with practical information and stress-lessening tools teens can use every day. Dozens of realistic scenarios describe stressful situations teen readers can relate to. Each scenario is followed by a clear, understandable process for reducing or stopping the stress and making decisions that won’t leave a teen lamenting, “What was I thinking?”

Throughout, quotes from real teens remind readers that they’re not alone—that stress affects everyone, but it doesn’t have to ruin your life. Includes resources.

As seen in Woman's World.

Reviews

“The perfect gift to give a teen. As a psychologist and a mother, I give this book two thumbs ‘way up.’ Bravo to Annie Fox and Ruth Kirschner for giving teens a sound resource to help them through the ‘roller-coaster years’”—Louise Masin Sattler, NCSP, owner of Signing Families

"Definitely worth reading...it will help you reduce how often you get stressed and help you deal with things that annoy you."
Scholastic Choices Magazine

Too Stressed to Think? aims to help teenagers confront a common and powerful menace: Stress. The authors, both educators, have developed a curriculum to help teens understand how stress affects them physically and mentally and how to create more balance and control in their lives. In addition to gaining useful tools and techniques to combat stress, teens can read insights and suggestions by other teens and stories about real-life challenges.”
