Does anyone know of CBT-style self help books for Generalized anxiety disorder? I really don't want to fuck around with medication anymore as it's never proven useful, and only been harmful to me. I want to get out of this fog, I want to be awake/lucid again, and I want my memory back.

You should consider seeing a psychologist for guided CBT. There's also some helpful links for CBT in the pastebin in >>17751233

I hate it, I hear all these stories about people getting their life back from medication and then even more people saying it's damaged them permanently.

I don't think i'm willing to go on medication for life, I don't think i'm willing to risk getting brain zapps and even MORE foggy.

I am, I just want a head start thank you

In my case I asked for situational meds for panic attacks and especially bad days instead of a med you take daily. That way I progress on my own and avoid taking meds completely in good periods. Might be a bad solution if you're prone to addition or substance abuse though.

I've taken situational meds, but its kind of pointless. I don't get panic attacks anymore, I just have a chronic lingering anxiety that makes it impossible to think or even remember anything.

I recommend the book Mental Health Through Will Training by Dr. Abraham A. Low. It I used at meetings of Recovery International, which I have attended for many years. It offers training in the Recovery method which I like CBT. Their website is at http://www.recoveryinternational.org. There are also online chat meetings. Many libraries have the book or you can order it through Amazon or the website. Good luck anon.

thanks everyone, I appreciate the resources. I'm going to start on that immediately. I just got a new job today and I'm scared i'll fuck up the tiniest things that normal me would never have fucked up on. Sure you can call it a self fulfilling prophecy, but it's happened so many times in the past when I didn't think it would happen.
