En resumen, TODO EN EXCESO ES MALO.
Tiene buenas reflexiones y me gustó mucho que acompañara todas las secciones con anécdotas de los pacientes, hizo la lectura más amena. Lo que sí es que se me hizo difícil tomar en serio la "adicción" de la autora con las novelas de romance LIKE GIRL, pero bueno.
Es el primer libro de "auto-ayuda" que leo y no está mal, pero se siente como un regaño que me daría mi mamá, yo qué sé.

I was already put off by the author's voice, too much about herself (why do we need a detailed description of her office and the stories behind the personal items in them? Why do we need to know that early in her career she worried about how her body looked and moved when patients were following her down the hall to her office?) and then quoting her patient in broken English, quoting a cop who made a point of specifying that it was Japanese anime that a young boy watched that gave him ideas about sexually abusing his younger brother) but I hoped that maybe she would have good info to share, despite a sort of laughable section where she relates her own period of compulsively consuming erotica of questionable literary quality. So I turned to some other reviews (big thank you to the person with the big warning about graphic animal cruelty) and learned that the content is highly moralistic and scientifically flawed, that the author has established biases in her other work and presentations that I find problematic, and so I'll be moving along.

Although this book gave me the impetus to finally delete the social media apps I scroll through excessively, in the end it’s more or less moral puritanism disguised as science. The author uses her credentials to make it seem like she is coming from a rational, scientific point of view, and then uses the kind of anecdotes you see in tabloids to cause scare/terrify you as if such bizarre, singular events had any statistical significance, and wasn't just meant to terrify or revile you.
The author attributes her love of romance novels and sexy vampires to be on the same spectrum as being an opiate addict or hooking yourself up to a masturbation machine for hours a day. In fact, everything that brings you any amount of joy that isn't "productive” should bring you shame and make you want to abstain. What a miserable way to live!!!
