You might try gateway. First book of heechee by Frederick pohl. The science is a bit wacky (think 1960s people thinking we would be on the moon with lasers in space 1999) but there are themes of depression and mental health. I'm not sure if I could suggest the rest of the books, but gateway is pretty solid imo.
I'm in the middle of trying to make aspects of it into a mod for stellaris right now but I'm not a good writer so I'm procrastinating!
Wacky science is fine with me, it's the overly long dry expositions that tend to turn me off of the more old school sci-fi stories like Dune. Will definitely give Gateway a try so thank you for the recommendation!
