Glad to see you're sticking with it! I started out self-taught, but I decided I'll sacrifice some sleep and free time for the next year if it means having a solid start to transitioning into a new field. That said, you're right- bootcamps are **not** for everyone. And I'm thankful, at least with my bootcamp, you do the prep class first to see if it's going to work or not without investing a lot of time and money.
