I naturally bump in to people who give me effective tips on how to heal my mind and body.

The genuinely useful suggestion almost never comes from the qualified person, which is one of the stranger features of all this. It arrives sideways — from a hairdresser mentioning the stretch her mother does, or a bloke at work who had the same thing in 2019 and tells you the one detail nobody put in the leaflet.

They are not experts and shouldn't be treated as any. But they have been in the specific situation, and specifics are exactly what is missing.

Stay findable. Mention what is going on to one more person than feels comfortable.
