I’m in a point in my life where I’m kind of stagnant sadly. I’m going through some personal issues and have been feeling a bit burnt out physically and emotionally. Balancing work (I work in the cinema and I’m a big film fan) and life has become a bit of chore. I have ADHD and maybe slight autism (although I’ve never been officially diagnosed so I dont want to say I have autism and may just have some similar traits). I’m bad at expressing myself and always feel like I say the wrong thing in important situations or leave something out that might help more. My focus can wander from time to time, which annoys me. And certain posts on social media lately have been making me a bit more anxious about my problems and the world. I inspire to one day become a more peaceful and spiritual person. Sadly I am far from that right now and it might lead me to having an identity crisis from time to time. I know some might recommend therapy. But I’ve been to therapy and while it has helped me confront some issues relating to my life, I still feel like I am going through the motions, especially when faced with prioritising day to day tasks and my relationship with family and friends.
Anyway to cut a long story shorter, I am looking for books/audiobooks that might help me make sense of my problems through somewhat complex and comprehensive philosophy and maybe some world issues. I want to educate myself further and become a better version of myself. I hope this post is allowed here. I know my book suggestion might be incredibly vague and it’s OK if you are unsure what book I might be looking for. Thanks in advance and I’d appreciate if you could help me with suggestions.
