Otherwise, an enormous amount of self-help is absolutely terrible.

This is absolutely true. There are self-help books that will be recommended to you by a member of the American Psychological Association and then there's hundreds upon thousands of self-help books that are complete poo poo. The term "self-help" is not regulated at all and both these kinds of books will get shelved together. It's honestly analogous to having books on the benefits of bloodletting sitting between Gray's Anatomy and the Red Cross First Aid manual.
