Do you feel like the realization/fear come from a rational place, or primarily driven by anxiety?

Everyone’s journey is different, but depending on where that fear is coming from, I could imagine drastically different next steps.

Personally, therapy has helped me immensely. A lot of my early anxiety about these things stemmed from severe imposter syndrome, and through the years I’ve gained enough confidence in myself to know that my skills are in demand, and survival is likely in the current market.

But if that fear is due to other things - the health of your employer’s business, etc. then a very different course of action might be required.

How people find a good therapist these days? I contacted about 10 already and all are fully booked.
