  When it comes to Borderline Personality Disorder, many people are left in the dark. They still have questions about what it is, what makes it so attractive to start a relationship with a borderliner, or how it differs in men and women. 
    
  This guide will not leave you in the dark, however; it will talk about these topics and so much more, such as society’s changing view of the disorder, the ages of a borderliner, how they change identities and how medical diagnoses can vary, and the disorder across different races and the two genders. 
    
  Let’s learn more about Borderline Personality Disorder and become aware of which elements in such a person’s life play a role in their behavior, their emotions, and their identity.

  Innocent Blood is the true story of Charles Hatcher and his life of crime—a powerful, and blood-chilling glimpse into the darkness between sanity and madness. It also chronicles a justice system gone wrong. 
  Throughout his criminal career Hatcher was able to fool dozens of psychiatrists, who repeatedly failed to identify him as a multiple murderer. Hatcher's astonishing skill was not just in his ability to murder and escape imprisonment. He became an expert at manipulating the criminal justice system; overall, he outwitted police, prosecutors, psychiatrists, and judges in twelve cities and eight states. 
  Terry Ganey first covered this story as a reporter for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Later, he spent four years researching the material for this book, interviewing over seventy-five people and reviewing thousands of documents, court transcripts, prison files, police reports, and mental health records. 
  What emerges is a fascinating and horrifying portrait of a mass murderer at large in America—a murderer who could have stalked his victims in any of our towns and cities, whether urban or rural, large or small. 
  Contains mature themes.

  DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
  This is a summary & it does not accompany the official. 
  "Never Enough" by Jennifer Breheny Wallace delves into the high-pressure world of today's students, who strive relentlessly for success and often find themselves overwhelmed. This book explores the pervasive culture of toxic achievement, where students pack their schedules with activities and face intense competition, leading to rising rates of anxiety and depression. 
  Wallace investigates the origins of this culture and its deep-seated roots in society, driven by income inequality and limited opportunities. Through interviews and research, the book highlights how children are absorbing the message that their worth is solely tied to their accomplishments. 
  However, "Never Enough" offers a different perspective, emphasizing the importance of children feeling like they matter intrinsically, regardless of their external achievements. It advocates for parents and educators to adopt a mindset that values a child's sense of self-worth and contribution to a larger community. By doing so, the book argues, children can develop resilience, self-confidence, and psychological security. 
  With insightful stories and practical guidance, "Never Enough" provides an urgent and humane perspective on the challenges facing today's teenagers and offers a framework for positive change in how we nurture and support them.

  »ACT 2 | DEBRISM« is the first release on Martin Hossbach’s newly-founded sub-label Martin Hossbach Word which will release readings and audio plays only. Scott King recorded »ACT 2 | DEBRISM« using his dictaphone in one afternoon at home.King writes:»On the afternoon of February 28th, during the long, locked-down winter of 2020/21, I sat at my desk and looked through the files on my laptop. I have hundreds of incomplete ‘projects’, thousands of ‘emails to self’ - ‘new idea for a novel, ‘new idea for a public sculpture’, ‘new idea for an opera’, and so on. None of these ideas ever got made, because somewhere along the line, I had lost the ability to ‘just do’. What went wrong?For as long as I have known it, I have always loved and believed in the famous Kippenberger maxim: ‘Heute denken, morgen fertig’ (‘Think today, be finished tomorrow’). Though my own maxim had become much closer to: ‘Heute denken, morgen denken. Und übermorgen auch’ (‘Think today, think tomorrow. And the next day’). I had become so reliant on the skills of others (‘makers’) – and worse – even more reliant on the opinions of others (‘gatekeepers’) that my output had dwindled to virtually nothing. This had to stop, so I set myself a challenge: RECORD A SPOKEN WORD ALBUM THIS AFTERNOON. I also set myself some rules: Must not be edited. Must be done at this desk (album cover included). Must not ask for any help. Must not worry about what anyone else thinks (they are wankers).I bought a dozen cans of pale ale, found my dictaphone, sat at my desk and began. I had no idea what I was going to say, but whatever I did say would be ‘the album’.By 6pm, I had finished, and I was elated – what I’d recorded might be shit, I didn’t care – because for the first time in many years, I had ‘just done’ something. ‘Heute denken, heute fertig’ (‘Think today, finish today’).

  "Switch" by Chip Heath, Dan Heath : Book SummaryNOTE–THIS IS A BOOK SUMMARY OF THE FOLLOWING BOOK: Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard by Chip Heath, Dan HeathORIGINAL BOOK DESCRIPTION:Why is it so hard to make lasting changes in our companies, in our communities, and in our own lives?The primary obstacle is a conflict that’s built into our brains, say Chip and Dan Heath, authors of the critically acclaimed bestseller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled by two different systems—the rational mind and the emotional mind—that compete for control. The rational mind wants a great beach body; the emotional mind wants that Oreo cookie. The rational mind wants to change something at work; the emotional mind loves the comfort of the existing routine. This tension can doom a change effort—but if it is overcome, change can come quickly.In Switch, the Heaths show how everyday people—employees and managers, parents and nurses—have united both minds and, as a result, achieved dramatic results: ?      The lowly medical interns who managed to defeat an entrenched, decades-old medical practice that was endangering patients.?      The home-organizing guru who developed a simple technique for overcoming the dread of housekeeping.?      The manager who transformed a lackadaisical customer-support team into service zealots by removing a standard tool of customer service            In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change. Switch shows that successful changes follow a pattern, a pattern you can use to make the changes that matter to you, whether your interest is in changing the world or changing your waistline.
