Dr Kirren Schnack, clinical psychologist and TikTok sensation, has shared her top tips from her brand-new book, Ten Times Calmer, with The Times.

In the article, which you can read here, Dr Kirren discusses her top tips for beating anxiety, her social media journey, her route into clinical psychology, and her brand-new book.

Julia Llewellyn Smith of The Times writes:

“The need for the likes of Schnack has never been greater. Study after study shows we’re in the throes of an anxiety epidemic. Recently, the Mental Health Foundation reported that 60 per cent of adults in the UK had in the previous two weeks experienced feelings of anxiety that had interfered with their daily lives. For children the problem is especially acute. The number being referred for serious mental health problems rose by 39 per cent in a year to 1.1 million in 2021-22. According to NHS figures, the number of antidepressant prescriptions being given to teenagers by GPs has exceeded one million a year.”
