"Ever since Haley Weaver was a child, anxiety has been at her side to remind her about what-if and worst-case scenarios, kind of like a bad houseguest who can't read a room. Like most people, Haley saw her anxiety as an obstacle to happiness-she wanted dump it at her therapist's office, or send it on trip far, far away...anything to be rid of it. But what Haley slowly began to understand is that anxiety isn't just an annoying visitor; it's who she is and it keeps her safe, so she might as well deal with it with some love and humor. This full-of-heart illustrated memoir stars Haley and Anxiety (as themselves) and brings to life their complicated, but ultimately uplifting relationship over time. It also introduces readers to the bad and good coping mechanisms Haley has relied on to soften the edges of her anxiety-The Liar, The Distractor, The Partier, The Compartmentalizer, The Writer, and more-and who have also played major co-starring roles. From adolescent slumber party truth-or-dare games gone wrong to big and terrifying life transitions she navigated as an adult, Give Me Space But Don't Go Far takes readers into the pivotal moments of Haley's life and illuminates the lesson she's learned: with care, practice, and sound strategies we can learn to co-exist with (and even love?) our anxiety and find peace. For the anxious among us, Give Me Space But Don't Go Far will feel like the comfy-cozy weighted blanket we all sometimes wish we could crawl under"--
