The Anxiety Book for Trans People

How to Conquer Your Dysphoria, Worry Less and Find Joy

Jessica Kingsley Publishers

Anxiety. It's out there and it's messing things up for us all. But for some of us, it's really messing things up.


As a trans woman, Freiya Benson is super anxious a lot of the time - from feeling unsafe in social situations, to worrying about how she looks and sounds - but over the years she has developed a toolkit for managing anxiety as a trans and/or non-binary person. Exploring specific triggers such as coming out, gender dysphoria, voice anxiety, transphobia, validity, passing and gender expectations, this guide will help you to identify and understand your triggers and anxiety, and build the resilience you need to handle life's challenges.

Freiya Benson is a writer, photographer and occasional florist. Her writing has featured in Huffington Post, Vice, i-D and DIVA and she has previously published Trans Love. She lives and works in Scotland.
