I have a Kindle ebook reader, though I don’t use it much. I prefer reading on my computer, where I use the PDF reader Zathura and Thorium Reader for EPUBs.

I love Unbirth’s new album.

Hey. I know how hard it is. I’ve also been diagnosed with agoraphobia linked to irritable bowel syndrome, which I’m also diagnosed with. I barely leave the house. What helps me is keeping my mind busy — for example, by reading. Though I don’t think that’s particularly good advice… it’s more like I’m avoiding the problem. But what I’ve done is adapt my daily activities to what I can realistically handle.

We have to keep going, even if we can’t see the light at the end of the road. Stay strong.

I’m currently reading With Speech as My Weapon by Emma Goldman. I’m halfway through, and I can say it’s an excellent book. The ideas it presents are the perfect synthesis between Max Stirner and Kropotkin.

I recommend Ivan Illich’s “Medical Nemesis.” He says something like: “we need to recover community self-care to avoid medical iatrogenesis and we need to eliminate the root cause of the social, economic, hygienic, etc., aspects that make our bodies and minds sick”

I’ve been between 3 and 4. This week I felt a greater intensity of discomfort. It’s hard for me to get out of bed. Despite that, I’ve been going to walk every day, at least 1 hour… and I’ve read a lot: in the last 30 days I’ve read about 6 books. Still, my activity beyond that is zero, so I feel certainly bad about it. The “work society” drags you down, whether you’re part of it or not.

I just finished the “Manifesto against Labour” by Krisis-Group

I recently finished the book “To our Friends” of the Invisible Committee. Right now, I’m reading “The Housing Monster,” a pdf that can be downloaded in “http://www.prole.info/” and that reviews the key concepts of Marx’s economic theory in a very simple way.

Right now I’m reading Endnotes 1.

Now I’m going to listen to the latest from Defeated Sanity. Thanks for the recommendations.

Now that I’ve listened to the full album I can say that is a good album. Rating: 3.5/5

Now I’m reading “The inner level: how more equal societies reduce stress, restore sanity and improve everyone’s well-being”. I’m loving it so far.

Without any particular order: Lemmy, Mastodon, Bookwyrm.

Just today I finished reading ‘Now’ by El Comité Invisible (The Invisible Committee). Incredible. In parts, better than ‘The Coming Insurrection,’ although I would say the first part of that book is excellent, unsurpassable.

Thank you for the recommendations. The only book I have read on the subject, aside from scattered information on the internet, is “Schizophrenia” by Catherine Tobin, and I liked it a lot. However, I believe it is outdated regarding current information, as this book discusses the possibility of complete recovery (with the withdrawal of the corresponding medication) for psychotic patients.

I am loving it. It is written in a very poetic language and really makes you reflect. In my case, it also generates a nihilistic feeling towards society and the possibility of change. It is a call to insurrection; it shows you, in an aesthetic and philosophical way, that there is no other way out but rebellion.

I’m currently reading “The Coming Insurrection” by “The Invisible Committee”

Hey! Interesting forum. I’ll visit it from time to time. If I decide to sign up, I’ll leave my username here. Thanks for sharing.

According to the book “Anatomy of an Epidemic” SSRIs (antidepressants) improve patient symptoms slightly in the short term compared to those who are not medicated. However, in the long term:

1. They do not solve the problem of anxiety/depression at the symptomatic level.

2. They hinder the patient’s recovery and turn them into a chronic depressive or anxious individual.

In my experience, since I started taking SSRIs, I have been having more panic attacks, even though initially, about 5 years ago, they seemed to improve my symptoms of social anxiety and sadness.

At the moment, I am still reading “Amadeo Bordiga in the Italian Communist Party” by Agustín Guillamón. Additionally, I have started “Anatomy of an Epidemic” by Robert Whitaker, which critiques the solutions that current psychiatry proposes in Western societies; it specifically focuses on the United States.
