A comment on Ask HN: Are books worth it?. Parent comment
FWIW, that's not what I was talking about, the guy I went to see is a hypnotherapist not a messiah.
> And my last sentence was not distasteful at all.
FWIW I wasn't offended. (I've had friends insult me to my face when bringing up personal history that is outside their worldview.)
> Depression is generally not solved by one-off sessions with life-coaches.
Right, and that is not what happened to me. The person who helped me is arguably the greatest living hypnotherapist on the planet.
Anyway, IMO you're right about the value and importance of hard work but wrong about books not being helpful.
Cheers!
