For anyone dealing with mental health things, see https://www.therapistaid.com/
You can work through most of the worksheets online for free, and it helped me understand mental health better than I ever had. I think they charge $9 per month to download PDFs of the worksheets, which is cheaper than therapy with a professional confuser.
I am not affiliated with them, and I do not make money off them. I am a former customer.

Thank you for the recommend. Given where I now am, I don't believe that I need this. But it is a resource I will likely forward to others.
That's the point of https://rationaldino.substack.com/ and this pseudonymous account. Separately I have other children who were impacted by COVID and lockdowns and are part of https://jonathanhaidt.substack.com/p/mental-health-liberal-g.... That's also been hard.
All of this is made more complicated by the fact that I regard psychology as having a lot of pseudoscience in it. Feynman was right to call them that in https://calteches.library.caltech.edu/51/2/CargoCult.htm. It took them 40 years to realize that he was right about the importance of replication. But they still haven't accepted the rest of what he said.
