This is a selection of five must-read books, depending on the specific situation you find yourself in. There will be no rating here. I am not suggesting that any of the books below are superior to the other. I believe that each of them is worthy of the attention of the widest possible audience. Regardless of whether you have a specialized education.
Wilhelm Reich. "Orgasm function"
Wilhelm Reich is a person who has gone through a difficult life path and has become a very important figure in psychotherapy. In this work, he examines the emotional manifestation of the orgastic reflex, which is the goal of psychotherapy.
Larry Kjell, Daniel Ziegler. "Personality theories"
It is worth mentioning that they are all nominated by talented psychotherapists. That makes the two experts' look at them even more interesting.
Victor Frankl. "A man in search of meaning"
One of the author's main works, drawing attention to existential problems in psychology and psychotherapy. At the same time, I consider this book the most accessible and vivid of all that Frankl has written.
The situations and problems described here, one way or another, occur in your life every day. The author helps to understand the connection between how you live and the meaning of what is really happening.
Carroll Izard. "Psychology of emotions"
If you want to know how human feelings are arranged, familiarize yourself with them in more detail and understand how you encounter them in real life, this book is for you. This is a classic in psychology literature.
To date, a lot of books have been written on feelings and emotions. But it is Izard's work that I believe is key. The information has remained relevant for over 40 years.
Eric Erickson. "Childhood and Society"
The title of the book is quite extensive. Perhaps this could be the title of an entire doctoral dissertation. But in fact, I put this work in the list of applied ones. The author created a periodization of human development from birth to death. But most of the periods are devoted specifically to childhood.
If you want to know where certain feelings, emotions and habits come from in specific people, this book will give you all the answers. You will understand how periods affect development, what is important to do and NOT to do at different stages of a person's formation.
Conclusion
I recommend adding these 5 works to your home library for everyone who is at least a little interested in psychology. This is accessible and most useful information that will definitely help you in life. On my YouTube channel in video format, I analyzed 5 more books, which I also recommend reading.

Betrayal In Everyday Life
Many people are familiar with betrayal, it too often overtakes us in everyday life. The difference in our perception and reality opens up an opportunity for us to look at our inner problems and old wounds. What is betrayal? This is when someone uses your trust, you open up to him, and this person uses the information received against you.
Everyday Life Of A Psychologist
In this topic, I would like to note not psychological centers and not psychologists who work in the centers or exclusively in the office. We will talk about those psychologists who want to scale their services by offering information products in the form of articles, master classes, trainings, etc.

Why Doesn't Reading Books And Articles On Psychology Help You Become More Self-confident?
As I have already written many times, self-confidence is the basis on which everything else is built: relationships with other people, relationships in a couple, in a family, with children, professional activity, self-realization, etc. And of course, many who want to become more confident read psychological literature, watch videos from psychologists.
