Bibliotherapy

Storytelling or the reading of specific texts as a way of healing. ''He had felt sad and depressed for a long time but some bibliotherapeutic sessions improved his mood a lot.''

I think of this as healing through books, as in my brother's approach. He buys them and reads them and has about 12,000 by now. He's even written a couple. He uses bookcases as walls to divide his living space into rooms. Bibliotherapy, or is it mania? Perhaps both.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
