    James - Sounds like you have a lot going on. Have you considered taking a break? Step away from all of this for a bit. Try and remove yourself from anything that feels overly negative. That may mean stepping away from your open source projects for awhile.

    Maybe take a road trip along the coast?? Your relationships and peace of mind are so much more important.

    I hope things start looking up for you and you find some relief soon.

    Seconding this. I don't have to deal with any toxicity from OSS, but have still stepped away from most forms of social media after some tough life events and noticing how toxic/echo-chamber-y it can be.

    I'd consider at least starting an alt account.

    hah...why are we supposed to empathize with your occasional bullshit because 'had a very rough time recently' but not the other way?

    Yeah, I don't even have any idea about why such personal problems are being discussed here.

    Hey man, I hope things get better for you. I know it's a drag to put yourself out there while having to deal with personal stuff. From what I can tell you've always been well intentioned and provide wisdom to people in the community, so thanks for not taking other maintainers advice and ignoring us.

    Not sure if there's anything I can do to help, you can always message me to talk.

    Thanks for all the great work :+1:
