Thanks for this. Yeah I definitely won't want to venture into the "serious stuff" exactly for the reasons stated. My experience has been that, it's the in-between severity that seems to lack good resources. The stuff that self-help books try to address and fail miserably at. The struggles people have that are unsettling, but not serious enough to seek therapy. My whole life is living in this middle place, so it took a long time to figure out what to do or where to go for help.

> My experience has been that, it's the in-between severity that seems to lack good resources. Yes good point, this is an issue with so many services. It's often people in the grey area, falling between the cracks, that get the worst deal - too well to seek help, too messed up to function properly. (I don't want to derail your thread but I think much is down to lack of simple human contact/friendship caused by digital intermediation.) You may be on to something with a sort of "buddy system" for hackers floundering under the stress of the current industry. I didn't mean to put you off seriously looking at training. Just being real. The fact that you reach out already suggests you have the foundation.
