    I have that book too lol! I’m halfway bc I keep putting it down (some of the cases are quite triggering), but I enjoy looking at mental health from a well-reaearched, scientific perspective; the way Bessel details the history of PTSD is very engaging!

    But yes, it waffles! So much waffle! GET TO THE POINT DAMMIT

      I’m watching that show Severance on apple and it made me think of how the characters take their trauma from personal life into the work world and the trauma from the work world into their personal life world

      spoiler

      they get tortured at work n/k ☹️

      hence some more motivation to read that book

      and I just finished reading “Bully in Sight” and I am surprised how much reading the case histories affected me . I can usually be quite detached when reading. Hope I’m ok reading that Bessel book.
