TBKtS: I have opinions on bits of the book that, in fact, ~problematic~, but honestly they're more to do with BvdK's lack of self-awareness than anything else.
Audio books: maybe more of a There Is Another Person Here And You're Not Alone support-in-self-regulating than you'd get by Reading Words On A Page? hindbrains are a thing, and also stupid.
also, good luck to getting over here, where I am still periodically incandescently furious about my trauma sources but at least am not still clinging to "but if I don't admit they were that bad then, magically, they will have Not Been That Bad and in consequence I Can Fix All This because It's A Moral Failing On My Part so I Just Have To Be Better"...
