dsarbear's review

Honestly the more I read the more the information seemed a little reductionist and potentially harmful. I want to be better at setting boundaries, but not if that's what it looks like. I also felt like the author didn't take into account anyone who doesn't live a very specific lifestyle. There was a lot of what felt like victim blaming language (sorry if you're fat or poor, apparently). My therapist recommended this but I don't think I can in good conscious continue listening.
