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.
I love Unbirth's new album.
