Today’s society relies heavily on individualism. You can do anything if you put your mind to it. Today, I will not try to dispute that claim. Instead, I present some disillusion about self-help, mainly about other people recommending something to everyone. Non-personalized help.

Body positivity
Is your body something you should be positive about? Why? Is positivity really that important? Should you be positive about every aspect of your life?
In my view, this call for positivity is, in effect, harmful to people.
You do not know what is best for you.
Individualism makes us all believe, that each of us should decide for themselves about themselves. Unless you are a kid, and even there, it strongly depends on how radical individualist a parent is. This leads to a crushing conclusion, that you (at least should) know what is best for you.
