Are there other such posts? I guess because I—erm—left for a while, I may have missed them!
Might be worth thinking about, sure. In my case I don’t think there’d have been much.
Maybe! I dunno. A and B have been pretty easy for me. And C, yeah! But to some degree I think that’s the point—if you’re unhappy with a life trying to make EA your social life + career + sense of meaning, try making a life where it’s none of those things (and donate far more money to charity than anyone else you know thinks is reasonable, sure), and then when you’re fully stable and secure, you can consider returning with a clear mind.
I suppose all this is quite n=1 though! It’s just worked well for me. But mileage may vary.
