The Overthinkers CBT Workbook: Rewire Your Perfectionism, Unlock Fast Decisions by kevin childs

Perfectionism and overthinking are usually described as two separate problems. In practice, for most people who struggle with both, they’re one mechanism with two visible symptoms. Perfectionism sets an impossibly high, often vaguely defined bar for what counts as an acceptable outcome. Overthinking is what your mind does while it tries — and fails — to guarantee that bar gets cleared before you commit to anything. You don’t overthink because you’re indecisive by nature. You overthink because some part of you believes that enough analysis can eliminate the risk of being wrong, and every time you stop analysing before you feel certain, it feels like stopping too early.

THE RECOVERY MYTH by kevin childs

THE RECOVERY MYTH: Why M.E/CFS Isn’t About Trying Harder by kevin childs

If you’ve never lived with ME/CFS, the logic of “push through it” probably still makes a kind of sense to you, because it’s built on an assumption almost everyone shares: that cause and effect are close together. You overdo it, you feel tired, you rest, you recover. Do a bit more each week, and your body adapts. That’s how exertion works for most people, most of the time.

It’s also, almost exactly, the opposite of how it works in ME/CFS — and understanding why is the difference between seeing pacing as giving up, and seeing it for what it actually is: the only response that fits the biology.

Read and Buried by JT Webster

Read and Buried: An Oakridge Harbor Mystery (Oakridge Harbor Mysteries Book 1) by JT Webster

A rare book goes into the safe at R&C Booksellers on a Thursday afternoon. Friday morning the man who brought it is dead in the stockroom, and the book is gone.

Walter Pruitt asked Jess Hollis to hold it overnight. She photographed it, logged it, and locked the safe. The alley door was closed. She wants that on the record.

Detective Fletcher has a dead man in a locked building and no forced entry. Somebody used a door that does not latch unless you lift the handle a quarter inch, which everybody in the building already knows how to do.

The book was not what it said it was. Jess notices when a thing is out of place. The trouble is the interpretation.

Read and Buried is Book One of the Oakridge Harbor Mysteries, a complete mystery with violence kept off the page.

Initially set in contemporary England, the story follows our long-suffering protagonist, Tom, who suddenly finds himself transported to a strange alien realm. With flavours of Victorian London, including poverty and degradation, it is populated by mysterious folk who barely reach his waist in height.

Tom had thought he already knew the meaning of trouble, but trouble had just been warming up for the main event. Our hero is about to go head-to-head against Lord Sod, of Sod’s Law fame, in this unusual, fast-paced Aetherpunk Sci-Fi adventure.
