      "Do you cope with anxiety by avoiding people, places, and situations that make you feel anxious? Do you deal with depression by isolating yourself from the people and activities that used to bring you joy? Do you avoid talking or thinking about the events that caused your post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)? If so, you're not alone. Changing behavior in an attempt to avoid thinking or confronting things that are uncomfortable is a common symptom of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and related conditions. With this guide, you'll develop skills based in transdiagnostic behavior therapy (TBT), an evidence-based protocol designed to help you identify and overcome the avoidance and isolation issues associated with depression, anxiety, and PTSD. You'll also learn how to safely and gradually implement therapeutic techniques that will result in reduced symptoms and improved confidence. If you're tired of hiding from difficult thoughts, emotions, and situations, this book will help you break the avoidance cycle at the heart of your disorder. It's time to stop running from the life you want and start developing the effective coping skills you need to face life's challenges with courage and confidence."-- Back cover

      Banking Union as a Shock Absorber

      Lessons for the Eurozone from the US

      • 98 pages
      • 4 hours of reading

      The book explores the contrasting effects of banking unions on regional financial stability, focusing on the United States and Europe. It highlights how the U.S. banking union effectively mitigates regional financial shocks at the federal level, while in Europe, especially within the Eurozone, such unions have resulted in significant regional dislocation and tensions. The study delves into the mechanisms and implications of these differences, offering insights into the effectiveness of banking unions in crisis management.

      Two of the four macroeconomic adjustment programmes, Portugal and Ireland’s, can be considered a success in the sense that the initial expectations in terms of adjustment, both fiscal and external, were broadly fulfilled. A rebound based on exports has taken hold in these two countries, but a full recovery will take years. In Greece the initial plans were insufficient. While the strong impact of the fiscal adjustment on demand could have been partially anticipated at the time, the resistance to structural reforms was more surprising and remains difficult to cure. The fiscal adjustment is now almost completed, but the external adjustment has not proceeded well. Exports are stagnating despite impressive falls in wage costs. In Cyprus, the outcome has so far been less severe than initially feared. It is still too early to find robust evidence in any country that the programmes have increased the long-term growth potential. Survey-based evidence suggests that structural reforms have not yet taken hold. The EU-led macroeconomic adjustment programmes outside the euro area (e.g. Latvia) seem to have been much stricter, but the adjustment was quicker and followed by a stronger rebound
