Unfortunately generalised advice and lip service is here to stay...Those in the emergency services and in health care have a standard set of guidelines to follow...so adages are simply a part of their spiel. Not all simplified advice will be helpful for everyone...but it often is helpful for many.
Gathering resources and finding coping strategies that work is like looking for a needle in a haystack ....but every so often one chances upon something that works, or at least sets us on a path to finding answers. It is true that tireless searching can become disheartening, but the trick is to never give up looking for that individual vital key. This is a Truth that I am certain of.
