Reddit mentions of Existentialism: A Very Short Introduction

I recommend Existentialism: A Very Short Introduction. It's an easy-to-read overview and history of existentialism and its major figures. It would be perfect for someone in high school, instead of immediately tackling a work by any one particular author.

Well, ultimately, your feelings about death are totally irrelevant.
So... maybe it's best to decide to have more pleasant feelings about it.

Or.. maybe you should look into Existentialism? http://www.amazon.com/Existentialism-A-Very-Short-Introduction/dp/0192804286/

Existentialism: A Very Short Introduction by Thomas Flynn. I really love these "A Short Introduction" books. I have read many of them on different philosophers. The authors of these books are writing to appeal to people who are not well versed in philosophy, religion, etc. I think you should understand what existentialism is to see if that is similar to your anxiety. Even better, perhaps you would enjoy a book on meditation, like this book, which has a five-star rating on Amazon.

The "Very Short Introduction" books are awesome for this purpose.

Also, Notes from the Underground would be a good place, too.
