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 However, I believe it is outdated regarding current information, as this book discusses the possibility of complete recovery (with the withdrawal of the corresponding medication) for psychotic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"

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.

Now I am reading 'Amadeo Bordiga in the Italian Communist Party' by Agustín Guillamón. I recently finished 'What Is to Be Done?' by Lenin.
