How much of the population is represented by HN. If you have a bell shaped curve and only people on one extreme are commenting then you can't create a curve based on those samples. Also people who aren't doing that well aren't bragging about how bad they are doing.

It's been a long time since Hacker News was one side of the bell curve.

Well they don't want to brag, but an online community where you can be anonymous if you want seems like a good place to reach out for help if you're in trouble.
