You Are Not a Malfunction That Needs Fixing challenges the modern obsession with self-improvement, productivity, and endless optimization. Blending philosophy, psychology, and cultural critique, this book explores how human vulnerability has been transformed into a profitable market — and how people have been taught to see themselves as permanent projects in need of repair.Rather than offering more motivational slogans, it asks a deeper question: What happens when we stop treating ourselves as problems to solve? Thoughtful, sharp, and humane, this book is for readers seeking a more honest relationship with growth, failure, rest, and what it means to be human.
