A fair point! I’ve likewise applied CBT and mindfulness techniques for the same reason.

I’d love some data on this too - anecdotally I’ve encountered many programmers who’ve tipped into chronically difficult emotional territory. I wonder if there is something about the mental nature of programming and the particular ease with which bugs can be created. Thanks for your reply!
