I live with my parents, so I can indulge in it. I love reading fiction of all kinds: fantasy, classics, sci-fi. I also read a lot of philosophy and japanese comics.
Nice. I wish I was more into books. Seems like a wonderful world of fiction and nonfiction.
Still though, around 1000 books. I can’t imagine what that would look like. There must be an entire room dedicated to books? They/you live in a big house with a library I imagine?
My therapist has informed me that this is my coping mechanism. Luckily, it could have been worse. Some of the most common coping mechanisms in BPD are alcoholism or some kind of similar substance abuse. I guess I was lucky in that regard or maybe I intuited it and intentionally avoided. I know how often I felt like getting dead drunk and I resisted the urge to.
Not really. I mostly code a little, but that’s about it.
Edit: Oh, I am a sucker for books. Like I have a library containing more than 1000 books.
Oh my god? That’s insane! You live in a house or how do you fit all those books? Are they different genres? What kind of books do you read mostly?

Not a whole lot of space. I use basically two large cupboards worth of space. Books are basically my escape from my life.
That’s enough to fill a thousand books?
Well, here are my shelves:
Behold!!
Ooh, Attack on Titan! 🤩 Yeah wow, it doesn’t look that much but I guess if you add the second storage to this then a thousand might be reasonable 😁
