I don't find his explanation convincing. He totally overworked for a long time, probably didn't exercise at all, didn't do anything at all - this by itself is likely already a symptom of an underlying issue. No sane person will spend all the time working if there is a choice. Maybe he was distracting himself from a depression or some trauma. To narrow the cause of his experience down to Glucose seems like quite a simplification.
- sokoloff 5y agoI might not be sane (how would I know fully?), but there are several times in my life when I beyond-willingly worked 75-90 hours per week for months on end. I did it to ship a game, and two other internal products at other companies. Those periods look a lot like working, sleeping, eating, and walking among the areas where those activities happen. I loved my life in those periods and had plenty of freedom to choose to do or not do it, probably more than I do now with obligations to provide for my family.
- 74d-fe6-2c6 5y agoI'm the last person to judge you. I myself am most certainly not "sane". My coping strategies lead me away from work. I need to maintain balance to actually work. Not even sure if I even have a real coping strategy. I do breathing exercises, ride my bike and in the evening I treat myself with a little bit of weed. So, that's that. It just seems to me that it might be worth digging a bit deeper and broader if you want to narrow down the cause/s. Good luck for sure!
