Having listened to the 80K podcast with Howie Lempel it seems that for him it was important to get out of a context where he was with EAs for work and friendship for a time in order to recover. So I’m not sure for which cases this would actually be a good solution.
Good point. However, since Howie was employed at an EA organization, he might be eligible for the idea described here. One approach is to implement several overlapping ideas, and if there’s an individual for whom none of the ideas work, they could go through the process Ozzie described in the OP (with the associated unfortunate downsides).
