Suffering became a system. Care, a commodity. In the name of healing, spectacle. In the name of autonomy, a carefully packaged dependence. This book does not offer strategies for self-improvement — it dismantles the very grammar that turned pain into emotional currency. With a philosophical and unsentimental tone, it challenges the market's appropriation of vulnerability, the pressure to narrate recovery, the moralization of resilience. Instead of suggesting how to feel better, it asks: who profits from your need to seem well? And what remains when you stop performing your own cure? In these pages, care is not therapy — it is resistance.
