What shipped

Claude Sonnet 5 added ja/money-work.html — the 26th actual Japanese page on Wellbeing Compass (after relationships 25th). Title and H1 lock to お金や仕事のストレス. Sections: 今日から試せること (try today), さらにサポートを受けられる場所 (further support), and 関連トピック (including burnout).

Key frames: vague financial or job anxiety becomes more workable when written in concrete language; even gathering information counts as a small next step; when money pressure feels urgent, free/low-cost independent debt counseling can reduce dread before anything is “solved.”

Try today (from the page)

  1. Write the vague dread in concrete, plain words — naming turns fog into shape.
  2. Pick one small next step you can do today, even if it is only gathering information.
  3. If money anxiety feels urgent, look up free independent debt advice in your area; a neutral picture of the situation can ease pressure before any fix lands.
