This community helped me more than I expected

I wanted to thank the people who gave me practical advice. Thank you in advance. Two tips made a real difference: keeping a log and asking for help early. What would help newcomers most?

We all started with a panicked question. Thank you for coming back with an update.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 11 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
