If you have an inquiring mind I'd encourage you to continue getting comfortable with doing some of your own research and being able to ferret out what constitutes valid sources. While I totally enjoy reading about personal real-life experiences there is also value in reputable studies. I also find I often learn something unexpected that I wasn’t even considering when I'm searching on a topic.
Google Scholar is our friend.
Sadly on message boards there can be a tendency to elevate someone who writes in an authoritative manner and my real interest lies in evaluating their sources and knowing their background before I crown someone an arm chair expert.
